摘　　要：Background:To determine patient-reported vision-related quality of life(VR-QoL)following Boston type I keratoprosthesis(BI-KPro)surgery and its association with postoperative best-corrected visual acuity(BCVA).Methods:Descriptive cross-sectional study.Consecutive consenting patients with BI-KPro were included.The French National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire-25 administered at 51±18 months postoperatively measured VR-QoL.Clinical charts were reviewed for demographics,indications for BI-KPro,baseline and postoperative(at time of interview)BCVA.For patients operated unilaterally,stratification of VR-QoL scores based on BCVA in the non-operated eye was performed.Multivariate linear regression was carried out,using VR-QoL scores as dependent variables,and demographics and postoperative BCVA as covariates.For patients operated bilaterally,Spearman correlation between VR-QoL scores and BCVA was performed.P<0.05 indicated statistical significance.Results:Sixty-four patients,aged 59±14 years,52%male,with a follow-up of 54±19 months,were included.Postoperative BCVA increased from baseline in all operated eyes(P=0.000).In patients with unilateral BI-KPro(n=52),the VR-QoL overall score was 70.7±25.1.Scores on all questionnaire subscales were greater when BCVA in the non-operated eye was>20/200 compared to 20/200(P=0.000).BCVA in the non-operated eye was positively associated with all subscales(P<0.01)independently of age,sex,follow-up duration and postoperative BCVA in the operated eye.In patients with bilateral BI-KPro(n=12)the VR-QoL overall score was 63.0±18.7.BCVA in the best eye positively correlated with Near/Distance activities,and social functioning subscales(P<0.05).There was no significant difference between VR-QoL scores of patients operated unilaterally vs.bilaterally.Conclusions:We describe VR-QoL more than 4 years after BI-KPro surgery.Compared to data at 1 year previously reported,our results suggest that,as vision progressively deteriorates in the operated eye,patients increasingly rely on
