Abstract
This descriptive research aimed to examine the quality of life and factors associated with quality of life in persons with diabetic retinopathy after retinal detachment surgery. The sample consisted of 75 persons with diabetic retinopathy after retinal detachment surgery at the Ophthalmology Outpatient Clinics of Bangkok Metropolitan Administration Hospitals. They were purposively selected according to the inclusion criteria. The data collection tools consisted of the Personal Information Questionnaire,the State Anxiety Questionnaire, the Functional Activity Assessment Questionnaire, the Family Support Questionnaire, and the Visual Function Questionnaire 28-Thai version.Descriptive statistics and Pearson’s Product Moment Correlation were used to analyze the data. The research results revealed that the mean quality of life score of persons with diabetic retinopathy after retinal detachment surgery was at a moderate level. Factors associated with the quality of life in persons with diabetic retinopathy after retinal detachment surgery, including visual impairment, functional activity difficulty, and anxiety, were significantly negatively related to the quality of life. Family support was significantly positively related to the quality of life. However, hemoglobin A1c level (HbA1c) was not significantly related to quality of life. The results support that health services in promoting the quality of life in persons with diabetic retinopathy after retinal
detachment surgery should emphasize maintaining visual acuity, decreasing anxiety,promoting functional activity, and family support.
