Dementia has a Macroeconomic impact since millions of people are affected and it’s very expensive to care for them.
We have already discussed on METAR how hearing loss correlates with an increased risk of dementia but hearing aids reduce the risk.
It’s not surprising that a similar sensory deprivation, cataracts in the lens of the eyes, is also correlated with a 25% increased risk of dementia. Cataract surgery to replace the lens reduces the risk to the same as people without cataracts.
I bought hearing aids when I read about the first issue. I’m already scheduled to have cataract surgery in May.
