Introduction: Low vision is an ocular morbid condition which
affects the quality of life and work ability of people.
Objective: The study assesses HRQL and the impact of psychosocial
working conditions on the work ability of people with low vision.
Methodology: It is a cross sectional study which includes 450
respondents suffering from glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy and
refractive anomalies with preserved vision 0.05 - 0.3 and a control
group of 150 respondents with visual acuity> 0.5. Standardized
generic instruments EQ-5D, EQ – VAS, WAI and COPSOQ were
utilized in the research.
Results: The respondents with glaucoma had the highest HRQL,
whereas those with diabetic retinopathy had the lowest HRQL
without a significant difference in quality of life. The respondents
assessed their health status with 60%, those with refractive anomalies
have the best self-assessment of health and respondents with diabetic
retinopathy had the worst. The average value of WAI with low vision
respondents is... 30.1±4.1 which is the lower limit of good, 35.8% have
poor, 58.7% good, 5.5% very good work ability.
The psychosocial conditions of the work environment, in the domains
quantitative job requirements, cognitive and emotional job
requirements, exhaustion and stress, have statistically significant
negative correlation of COSPOQ scores/WAI in low vision
respondents. In the domains of employee influence at work, training
opportunities, importance of work, quality of management, social
support, employee-superior relationship, role and definition, job
satisfaction and health status, there is a positive correlation of
COSPOQ scores/WAI, which is more pronounced with the control
group then the low vision respondents.
Conclusion: The influence of psychosocial working conditions on the
work ability of the people with low vision doesn’t depend only on the
degree of visual impairment, but it is also affected by contextual
characteristics of the person, comorbid conditions, vocational
training, complexity and job requirements, work organization, etc.
