0857 Associations between Functional Vision and Sleep Performance

Abstract Introduction Conserved early visual pathways set perception and sleep consolidation timing, but the associations between functional vision are not well established. Here, we determine these in a nationally-recruited adult cohort contrast them with health outcome covariates. Methods Data were drawn from 5973 adults aged 20 to 85 years (M=41.32, SD=21.82), obtained US National Health Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2005-2006 2007-2008 cohorts. Adults reported demographics, duration, vision, body size (body mass index; BMI), depression (Patient Questionnaire-9), social support information. Spearman’s rank correlations performed association self-reported measures of typical nightly duration. To influence covariates thought moderate outcomes on this association, ordinal logistic regression was as predictor ‘general eyesight condition’ or ‘vision limiting activities’ dependent variables; age, BMI, depression, emotional Results Typical duration correlated very weakly general condition (r=-.07, p<.001), activities (r=-.03, p=.001), worry (r=-.09, difficulty reading newsprint (r=-.06, discriminating objects p=.007). For condition, (exponentiated) odds ratios minorly improved increasing (B=.93, effects eclipsed by psychosocial factors such PHQ-9 score (B=1.11, p<.001) availability (B=.71, while ageing had minor effect (B=1.02, BMI did associate (p=.29). activities; influenced (p=.086), (B=1.13, (B=0.63, meaningfully enhanced ratios, (B=1.03, (B=1.01, p=.009). Conclusion Despite shared sensory pathways, neuroprotective appear limited. Unlike for many disorders, deficits. Psychosocial mechanisms strongest beneficial should be given more consideration during optometric care. Support (if any) BBRF NARSAD (#28056). KTEF Career Starter (#NNO). NAM Catalyst (#2000012740).
