Interviewer instructions

We want to know whether at any time during the pregnancy the respondent experienced problems related to her vision.

In Col 4, ask the respondent about night blindness. During pregnancy, especially in the third trimester, a woman may suffer from night blindness due to vitamin A deficiency.

Night blindness is a condition in which a person has more difficulty than normal seeing when it is dark or in low light conditions.

Use the local term for night blindness so that the woman understands what condition you are referring to. Do not include problems such as nearsightedness or farsightedness.

Question post text

Note: If the woman is not in the household (absent) during the interview month, leave blank in column 4-7.
