    Abstract:

    AIM: To compare and analyse the diagnostic efficacy of the College of Optometrists Vision Development Quality of Life Questionnaire (COVD-QOL) and the Convergence Insufficiency Symptom Survey (CISS) in detecting convergence insufficiency and to compare their diagnostic value in clinical applications. METHODS: Using the diagnostic test method, 62 adult patients with convergence insufficiency (age: 24.74±3.75y) and 62 normal participants (age: 23.61±3.13y) who visited the Optometry Clinic of West China Hospital of Sichuan University from April 2021 to January 2023 were included. All subjects completed the CISS and COVD-QOL. Statistical analysis of the sensitivity and specificity of the CISS and COVD-QOL and comparison and joint experimental analysis of their diagnostic efficacy were performed. RESULTS: The sensitivity of the CISS and COVD-QOL for convergence insufficiency was 64.5% and 71.0%, respectively, while the specificity was 96.8% and 67.7%, respectively. Compared to the CISS alone, the combination of the CISS and COVD-QOL demonstrated lower sensitivity and specificity. The areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve of CISS, COVD-QOL and CISS combined with COVD-QOL were 0.806, 0.694 and 0.782, respectively. CONCLUSION: Considering the low sensitivity of the CISS and the low specificity of the COVD-QOL, it is recommended to supplement these questionnaires with other screening tests for the detection of convergence insufficiency.
