Abstract

The number of presbyopia with inadequate correction is increasing worldwide which surely decreased the visual satisfaction. A survey was conducted to study the level of vision satisfaction between the quality of vision and symptoms reported by progressive addition lens (PALs). Sixty questionnaires were mailed to the (PALs) wearers aged between 40 years and above from Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM) Vision Care. The strongest correlation was between the quality of vision at intermediate viewing with total satisfaction on seeing grocery shelves and computer screen p<0.001. PALs wearers priority and needs should be considered in selecting the appropriate lens design for required tasks.
