This questionnaire is an individualised measure of the impact of macular disease on quality of life. It is suitable for adults with late-onset macular degeneration and those with other forms of macular disease.
The Macular Dependent Quality of Life (MacDQoL) was developed in 2000 and is based on the Audit of Diabetes Dependent Quality of Life (ADDQoL). The Retinopathy Dependent Quality of Life questionnaire (RetDQoL) measure of the impact of diabetic retinopathy on QoL has been developed alongside the MacDQoL and improvements to one have influenced improvements to the other. Evidence for the psychometric properties of the MacDQoL has been published. Translations/adaptations of the MacDQoL are available in several languages.
