Association of Daily Wear of Eyeglasses With Susceptibility to Coronavirus Disease 2019 Infection

Abstract

In this cohort study of patients hospitalized with COVID-19 in Suizhou, China, the proportion of inpatients with COVID-19 who wore glasses for extended daily periods (>8 h/d) was smaller than that in the general population, suggesting that daily wearers of eyeglasses may be less susceptible to COVID-19.
