Simple and precise patient satisfaction questionnaire for laser refractive surgery

The editorial by Kohnen1 on questionnaires for cataract and refractive surgery outlines different methods, including the National Eye Institute Visual Functioning Questionnaire-25 and Quality of Vision questionnaire. These are validated tools but are extensive and time-consuming for patients and physicians, especially if they are created in-office and administered to all patients as a part of routine assessment. In the same issue, Akman et  al.2 describe patient-reported quality of life after trifocal intraocular lens implantation using the National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire-14 (VF-14 QoL questionnaire).
