Stata Code for eCSC and CSC calculations

WHO has identified WHO Effective Cataract Surgical Coverage (eCSC) as a key indicator for monitring Universal Eye Health. LINK

There is a slight change from the prior formulae used for eCSC in papers by Ramke et al and the one published by Keel et al.

Further, the original CSC estimation formula by Lindberg et al has also been recommended a change by McCormick et al

Using the RAAB 6 survey data, you can generate the various eCSC and CSC indicators using the code below.

Save the code as a Stata do file “eCSC_WHO_2022.do” in the same folder where your data is located and where you are running your analysis

WHO 2022 [8]   a + b / x+y+z

a Individuals with unilateral operated cataract attaining PVA equal to, or 
 better than, 6/12 in the operated eye, who have BCVA worse than 6/12 in the other eye

b Individuals with bilateral operated cataract attaining PVA equal to, or better than, 6/12 
 in at least one eye.

x Individuals with unilateral operated cataract (regardless of visual acuity in the operated eye), 
who have BCVA worse than 6/12 in the other eye 

y Individuals with bilateral operated cataract, regardless of visual acuity - COMMON VARIABLE FOR CSC

z Individuals with BCVA worse than 6/12 in both eyes with cataract as 
 the main cause of vision impairment or blindness in one or both eyes
