Objective. To study the prevalence of geriatric syndromes in patients with nuclear cataracts (NC) depending on uncorrected visual acuity. Materials and methods. The study involved 660 patients, divided into 3 groups: 1st (n=220) – patients with NC aged 60–74 years; 2nd (n=240) – patients with NC aged 75–89 years; 3rd (n=200) – patients aged 75–89 years without NC. The presence of geriatric syndromes was studied using a comprehensive geriatric assessment. Results. It was found that deterioration in visual acuity
