Refractive Surgery Patient Characteristics Associated With Satisfaction Scores JOURNAL OF REFRACTIVE SURGERY Tran, E. M., Manche, E. E. 2024; 40 (8): e539-e543Abstract
To determine factors influencing patient satisfaction scores in recipients of refractive surgery.In this prospective survey-based study, patients who had refractive surgery at an outpatient refractive clinic completed a survey of selected questions from the Press Ganey survey and the National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire-25. Correlation between patient-specific variables and survey questions were assessed using Student's t-tests.Fifty-three patients were recruited over a 3-year period. Most were male (55%) and middle aged (mean age: 34 years). Eleven percent underwent photorefractive keratectomy surgery and the rest had laser in situ keratomileusis, with no complications. Twenty-four percent of surveyed patients reported mild to moderate eye pain postoperatively, with the rest reporting no pain. All patients reported a full score for overall satisfaction.This study found persistent high patient satisfaction score across a variation of characteristics, suggesting that optimal scores are mainstay after refractive surgery procedures with excellent visual outcomes, independent of patient clinical and sociodemographic characteristics.
