Abstract
A vision assessment program carried out in all nursing homes examined 89.3 percent of all residents. Results provide documentation of vision loss and blindness in the sample. The data show increasing levels of vision loss and blindness with age. This study documents the contribution of such impairment to increasing levels of supervision and nursing care. It is also evident that increasing vision loss reduces mobility, thus limiting the range of physical and intellectual activities of aged persons. The major contributory factors to vision impairment are ocular and systemic diseases. The prevalence of these conditions is established. A need is demonstrated for provision of vision care in nursing homes. The study suggests that the application of available technology for vision assessment and remediation could restore or improve the visual capability of a substantial number of persons suffering from vision impairment or blindness. The presence of age related increases in intraocular pressure and previously undetected glaucoma offers preventive opportunity.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
