Description
Lena Havstam Johansson, Anna Levinsson, and Sara Flodin translate a questionnaire on quality of life in strabismus into Swedish, and check that it works. Their 2024 study adapts the Adult Strabismus twenty-item tool for Swedish patients.
The work to translate it kept to steps for good practice used across lands. Orthoptic students, experts from clinics, lay people, and patients from eye clinics across the land all took part. The last form was tested in sixty-eight adults with strabismus. Internal consistency was high for both subscales. One subscale deals with life among others, and one with how the eyes work. Rasch analysis hinted that the items, and the choices for each reply, should be cut down. That step would bring full content and construct validity. The team ends that the full process gave a Swedish tool that can be trusted.
