초록
본 연구는 시력관련 삶의 질(Vision-Related Quality of Life)을 평가하기 위하여 안경과 콘택트렌즈로 보정한 비정시안 137명의 삶의 질을 비교분석하였다. 평가도구로는 1) 자각증세(Visual Symptoms) 2) 사회적 역할기능 및 신체적 기능(Social Role and Physical Functioning) 3) 경제적 문제 및 건강에 대한 관심(Economic Issues and Health Concerns) 4) 심리상태(Psychological Well Being)를 측정할 수 있는 NEI-VFQ(National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire)를 한국어 번역판을 개발하여 사용하였다.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess vision-related quality of life and modes of refractive error correction. We administered NEI-VFQ (National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire) to 137 subjects in two modes of refractive error correction: spectacles and contact lens wearers. The NEL-VFQ was developed to assess vision-related quality of life with respect to 1) visual symptoms 2) social function as well as difficulty with tasks and symptoms 3) economic issues and health concerns 4) psychological well-being. The NEL-VFQ was translated from English into Korean. Methods: All data were analyzed using SAS 8.0. Student's T-test was conducted to determine significant differences in each of the subscale (
