sex: Sex of patient (m = male, f = female)
age0: Age (years) at day of first appointment

Data was accessed on the 25th May 2020

There are two missing visual acuity entries in this data set. They result from data entry errors (ETDRS values above 100) in the original medical health records. Unfortunately, the correct VA value could not be retrieved and it was decided to assign missing values to those measurements.
