Quality of life as viewed from cataract surgery: traditional and perspective approaches
https://doi.org/10.21516/2072-0076-2022-15-1-153-157
Abstract
The review presents an analysis of traditional and promising approaches to assessing the quality of life (QoL) in cataract surgery. Literature data indicate statistically significant correlations between QoL and objective indicators of the visual system both during the initial examination of the patient and, more importantly, in the course of therapy. Traditional approaches to the study of QoL in cataract surgery reveal a trend towards the development of targeted questionnaires featuring optimized psychometric testing of questions and the procedure for scaling answers. New QoL questionnaires are developed in order to improve the collection and evaluation of information by taking into account the quantitative assessment of patient complaints made by an expert ophthalmologist, who can reliably evaluate their impact on QoL. It also seems appropriate to use the "International Classification of Functioning, Disabilities and Health", develop more targeted questionnaires aimed at assessing modern aspects of cataract surgery, and optimize the study itself.
