Abstract

This article describes a study of the relationship between the degrees of visual impairment and self-reports of psychological distress by 167 Icelanders aged 18-69 and 100 aged 70–97 who were blind or had low vision. The study found that self-reports of psychological distress and perceptions of unhappiness vary significantly with the degree of visual impairment.
