balance performance in all four conditions. Conclusions: Impaired visual acuity leads to balance deficits through impaired EF in people with AD. Specifically, participants with poorer vision had poorer EF and participants with impaired EF had greater postural instability. In addition, the influence of EF on the relationship between visual acuity and postural instability was progressively larger as the challenge to the sensory systems increased.
