  • Quality of life concerning visual function of patients with monocular rhegmatogenous retinal detachment before and after surgery

    Objective To investigate the visionrelated quality of life (VRQoL) of patients with monocular rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) before and after relative surgery, and analyze its influencing factors. Methods A total of 92 patients with monocular RRD were asked to complete the Chinese-version low vision quality of life questionnaire (CLVQOL) preoperatively and at the end of the follow-up time. Results The Cronbach alpha; coefficient of the questionnaire was more than 0.7. The lowest scores were at the item of quot;adjustive abilityquot; before the surgery, and the scores of the questionnaires were significantly higher at the end of the follow-up time. The item whose score changed most caused by the surgery was quot;adjustive abilityquot;. The visual acuity in RRD eyes before the operation and the changes of the visual acuity was the chief independent risk factor of the questionnaire score before surgery and the changes of scores due to surgery, respectively. Conclusions CLVQOL can be used to assess the VRQoL of patients with monocular RRD after surgery. The qualities of life of patients with monocular RRD decrease sharply. VRQoL, especially the adjustive ability, improves obviously after operation, but the patient would be inconvenient for doing some precision work or daily house work. Improving the visual acuity of the RRD eye, giving early surgery and avoiding complications help to improve the VRQoL of the patients with monocular RRD. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2006, 22: 106-109)
