Development of core outcome sets and core outcome measures for central visual impairment, visual field loss and ocular motility disorders due to stroke: a Delphi and consensus study.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Reporting of research for stroke-related visual impairment is inconsistent. The aim of this study was to define three core outcome sets (COS) and related core outcome measurements (COM) for central visual impairment, visual field loss and ocular motility disorders in stroke research.

Design

The consensus process consisted of an online three-round Delphi survey followed by a consensus meeting of key stakeholders.

Setting

UK-wide survey.

Participants

Stakeholders included orthoptists, occupational therapists, ophthalmologists, stroke survivors and COS users such as researchers, journal editors and guideline developers.

Outcome measures

For COS development, a list of potentially relevant visual outcomes was created after review of the literature
