This retrospective cohort study investigated whether unilateral vision impairment (UVI) or amblyopia are associated with driver licensing and crash risk among young adults. Electronic health records for New Jersey residents who were patients with the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia's healthcare network were linked to statewide driver licensing and crash data. We compared young adults with a diagnosis of UVI and/or amblyopia to peers without such a diagnosis. Young adults with UVI or amblyopia were less likely to acquire a driver's license than those without these conditions. However, among licensed drivers, the risk of a police-reported crash was similar in all three groups.
这项回顾性队列研究调查了单眼视力障碍(UVI)或弱视是否与年轻成年人的驾照获取及撞车风险相关。费城儿童医院医疗网络中作为患者的新泽西居民的电子健康记录与全州范围的驾照及撞车数据相链接。我们将诊断为UVI和/或弱视的年轻成年人与未作此诊断的同龄人进行了比较。患有UVI或弱视的年轻成年人比没有这些情况的人获得驾照的可能性更小。然而,在有驾照的司机中,三组人群中警方报告的撞车风险相似。
