Validation and comparison of EQ-5D-5L and SF-6Dv1 in myopic patients requiring corneal refractive surgery in China.

ABSTRACT: Different health-related quality of life scales are suitable for various populations and scenarios; hence, the selection of measurement tools must be based on research objectives and focal points. To facilitate the choice between EQ-5D-5L and SF-6Dv1 in clinical and economic research of myopic patients undergoing corneal refractive surgery, the study aims to assess and compare EQ-5D-5L and SF-6Dv1 among the patients in China. A total of 411 participants with a mean age of 25.6 years were recruited. Information collected including demographic characteristics, EQ-5D-5L and SF-6Dv1. The ceiling effect was evaluated by calculating the proportion of participants who reported the best possible health states. Agreement between EQ-5D-5L and SF-6Dv1 health utility scores (HUSs) was tested using int
