      Objectives: The objectives of the study were to obtain the current estimates of cataract surgical coverage (CSC) at varying thresholds of vision and gender variations across districts in diverse Indian populations aged ≥50 years. Methods: Data collected from the national blindness survey from 31 Indian districts between 2015 and 2019 were analyzed. CSC at varying thresholds of presenting visual acuity Results: The survey coverage was 93.5%, with 85,135 participants examined. The overall CSC at best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) Conclusions: CSC improved for 3/60 and 6/60 cut-offs, but remained low for 6/18 BCVA cut-off in India, with district- and gender-based inequities that need health system interventions.
