Distance vision impairment was the presence of uncorrected vision of <6/12 in either eye, correctable to ≥6/7.5 with distance refraction. Near vision impairment was defined as 1 or more of the following: 1) either eye with presenting near vision <N8 at 40\u200acm with distance visual acuity >6/12 in the same eye; 2) having been prescribed near add spectacle power in examination records; and/or 3) clinical diagnosis of presbyopia at the time of screening. Demographic information and monthly income were self-reported by questionnaire completion.\nAmong 915 participating workers (100% female, 18 to 70\u200ayears), 29.2% (n\u200a=\u200a267) and 26.8% (n\u200a=\u200a245) had correctable distance and near vision impairment respectively. Prevalence of near vision impairment was significantly higher among rural residents (34.2%, n\u200a=\u200a160), compared to urban (19.0%, n\u200a=\u200a85, P\u200a<\u200a0.0001) with the largest differences in the 35 to 39 (68.2% vs 44.2%, P\u200a=\u200a0.0019) and 40+ (85.9 vs 48.9%, P\u200a<\u200a0.0001) year age ranges. Prevalence of near vision impairment was already high among urban (20.4%, n\u200a=\u200a20) and rural (23.0%, n\u200a=\u200a17) workers aged 30 to 34\u200ayears. In simple linear regression models, participants with near vision impairment earned $13.3 [standard error (SE) 2.44, P\u200a<\u200a0.0001] less per month than those without, while urban residents earned $40.6 (SE 1.74, P\u200a<\u200a0.0001) more than rural dwellers. In the final multivariate linear model, both near vision impairment ($6.51 lower monthly earnings, SE 1.84, P\u200a=\u200a0.0004) and urban residence ($43.2 higher monthly earnings, SE 2.39, P\u200a<\u200a0.0001) remained significantly associated with income.\nThis study found high rates of near vision impairment among female garment workers, particularly rural dwellers, and at a younger age than expected. The high prevalence and association between near vision impairment and lower income suggest that focusing on industries with a high proportion of female workers, such as readymade garments, may be effective in addressing gender disparities in vision impairment and its economic impact.', 'mimetype': 'text/plain', 'lang': 'en'}
