To determine the prevalence, causes, and associations of visual impairment (VI) among participants aged 60 years or older in a rural community in China.<jats:italic>Methods<\/jats:italic>. A community-based survey was undertaken in a rural town located in Eastern China and 4579 people aged 60 years or older participated in the study. Presenting visual acuity was assessed using a Snellen chart with tumbling-E optotypes and anterior segment was examined using a slit-lamp. VI was defined as presenting VA &lt;6\/18 and it included moderate VI (&lt;6\/18 to 6\/60) and blindness (&lt;6\/60).<jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>. The prevalence of VI was 5.4% (95% confidence interval [CI] 4.7\u20136.0). In multivariate analysis, the presence of VI was positively associated with increasing age (odds ratio [OR] = 1.12, 95% CI 1.10\u20131.16, per year increase), female gender (OR = 2.33, 95% CI 1.53\u20133.55), the presence of hypertension (OR = 1.31, 95% CI 1.001\u20131.85), living alone (OR = 1.52, 95% CI 1.08\u20132.62), and increased sleeping hours (OR = 1.10, 95% CI 1.001\u20131.22). Drinking 3 or more glasses of green tea per day was inversely associated with VI (OR = 0.79, 95% CI 0.63\u20130.98).<jats:italic>Conclusion<\/jats:italic>. VI was less prevalent in this community compared with previous report in other areas in
