Assistive technology for vision improvement interventions vs usual care or attention control

Number of people sustaining one or more fall‐related fractures · Older people living in the community

It is very uncertain whether assistive technology for vision improvement interventions changes number of people who experienced 1 or more fall‐related fractures compared with usual care or attention control (very low certainty).
