Abstract

Analysis of visual impairment and the deficiency of Retinol
Track: Public Health
Authors: Oscar Fonque, Luis Agudelo

The aim of this project is to assess the relationship between access to natural sources of vitamin A and visual impairment using ArcGIS statistics and network modules for distribution solutions. This will be calculated using a population sample from each department in Colombia between the ages of 0-4. New route plans will be placed between the areas with critical and satisfactory sources of retinol and the plans will be presented to the Colombian government to aid visual health in children.
