To model the factors that are associated with the use of eye care services among the United States population with and without diabetes, stratifying by age group. Meta-analysis. We analyzed data from three datasets: the Behavioral Risk Factors Surveillance System combined years 2006-2009, the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey combined years 2005-2008, and the National Health Interview Survey year 2008. For all three datasets, we analyzed data from all survey participants aged 40 or older who participated in vision-related survey modules. We performed multivariate logistic regression analyses to assess associations between any eye care utilization within the previous year and 14 indicators of patient demographics and health. We estimated separate regressions for persons with and without diabetes stratified by age group. We combined estimates across datasets using a random effects model estimated using Markov Chain Monte Carlo algorithms. Use of eye care in the previous year and personal factors associated with eye care use. Annual eye care utilization rates ranged from 46% to 51% in participants without diabetes and 64% to 72% in participants with diabetes. For people with and without diabetes, health insurance, an eye disease diagnosis, and higher income were associated with higher odds of eye care utilization. Being male was associated with lower odds of eye care utilization in some diabetes status and age group categories. Other variables, such as more education, being married, black race, Hispanic/Latino ethnicity, health status, heavy drinking, and limited ability to read small print were associated with eye care utilization in only some diabetes status and age group categories. Our findings indicate that economic and ocular health factors are associated with the greatest odds of annual eye care utilization. Access to health insurance and income levels greater than $35,000 United States Dollars (value at the time of interview), are associated with eye care utilization, independent of other demographic factors.
