Abstrakt: Purpose: Implementation of the International Consortium for Health Outcomes Measurements (ICHOM) standard for cataract surgery into clinical practice at an Italian tertiary referral centre.
Methods: Prospective, observational, descriptive study consisting of the registry and analysis of cataract surgeries performed during a 6-month enrolment period at the University Eye Clinic of Trieste, Trieste, Italy. Outcomes were recorded and analysed according to the ICHOM Cataract Standard Set version 2.0.1. Records included clinician-reported outcome measures (CROMs) - visual outcome and complications - and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) - self-assessed vision with the Catquest-9SF questionnaire. Correlations between PROMs and CROMs were evaluated. A multiple linear regression was used for predicting the change in PROMs with surgery.
Results: A total of 218 eyes (of 218 patients) were analysed. Postoperative corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) was ⩾0.3 in 89.0% (194/218) of eyes. There was a statistically significant improvement of the post-operative Catquest-9SF global average score. ( p  < 0.001). The change in the Catquest-9SF score significantly correlated with the change in Item 2 score (related to intermediate vision) ( r  = 0.634, p  < 0.001). A predictive model of the change in the Catquest-9SF score was found ( p  < 0.001, R 2 : 0.527) based on preoperative Catquest-9SF total score, presence or not of macular degeneration, presence or not of intraoperative complications, age >75 years old, and preoperative CDVA.
Conclusions: Cataract surgery improves the functional vision, with some factors limiting the outcomes such as comorbidities. Self-perceived improvement in intermediate vision significantly influenced the improvement in self-assessed vision.
