Abstract:
Glaucoma is a serious ocular disorder potentially leading to blindness. Measuring the quality of life of patients with glaucoma is important because it makes it possible to evaluate the impact of the disease and its treatment on the patient's everyday life. Hitherto, this was done using generic scales, or those developed for other diseases; but no scale suitable for glaucoma was available. The recently developed GlauQOL scale is now available. We present the short version of this questionnaire adapted to individual use within an ophthalmology consultation setting.
