Development and Initial Validation of Quality-of-Life Questionnaires for Intermittent Exotropia
Ophthalmology, 11/09/09

Hatt SR et al. – A new 3–part patient–derived HRQOL questionnaire for children with IXT and their parents has been developed and validated, comprising child, proxy, and parent questionnaires. These questionnaires detect reduced HRQOL in children with IXT as reported by the children themselves and perceived by their parents (proxy report). Childhood IXT also seems to affect parent HRQOL. The IXTQ HRQOL questionnaires may prove useful in the clinical assessment of IXT and for clinical trials.
