    Patient satisfaction after refractive surgery is consistently high, regardless of patient characteristics or minor postoperative discomfort. Excellent visual outcomes appear to be the primary driver of overall satisfaction.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Vision Science

    Background:

    • Refractive surgery aims to correct vision impairments.
    • Patient satisfaction is a key outcome measure in ophthalmic procedures.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To identify factors influencing patient satisfaction scores following refractive surgery.

    Main Methods:

    • Prospective, survey-based study.
    • Utilized Press Ganey and National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire-25.
    • Assessed correlations using Student's t-tests.

    Main Results:

    • 53 patients participated over 3 years.
    • All patients reported full overall satisfaction.
    • 24% experienced mild to moderate postoperative eye pain.

    Conclusions:

    • High patient satisfaction is a consistent outcome of refractive surgery.
    • Satisfaction is largely independent of clinical and sociodemographic factors.
    • Excellent visual outcomes are paramount for patient satisfaction.
