This questionnaire is designed to measure satisfaction with treatment for macular disease including late-onset macular degeneration.
The MacTSQ1 was developed in 2006/7 and is based on the DTSQ (Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire)2 3 and the RetTSQ (Retinopathy Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire).4 5 The MacTSQ was designed with the help of members of several Macular Disease Society self-help groups, using in-depth interviews. The MacTSQ was revised in 2012 and is available in several languages.
The psychometric development was conducted using a dataset from a British clinical trial, the IVAN trial, comparing treatment regimens for an anti-VEGF drug administered by intraocular injection. The scoring algorithm was prepared following psychometric analysis and development.
