NEI-VFQ-25 and FIM tests were measured by a masked ergo-therapist. The patients who underwent phacoemulsification surgery were included in this study. Mean best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), NEI-VFQ-25 and FIM scores were compared in the preoperative period and at least 3 months after the surgery according to demographic properties including gender, age, education status, as well as the BCVA level and laterality.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Preoperative mean BCVA and NEI-VFQ-25 composite scores improved significantly ( p\u2009&lt;\u20090.001 and p\u2009=\u20090.001, respectively). All NEI-VFQ-25 subscale scores except the general health ( p\u2009=\u20090.235) and driving ( p\u2009=\u20090.226) showed a significant postoperative increase. The postoperative NEI-VFQ-25 composite scores showed a significant increase in all subgroup analyses ( p\u2009&lt;\u20090.05 for all). Patients with poorer BCVA, bilateral surgery, and low education status had lower preoperative NEI-VFQ-25 composite scores than the patients with better BCVA, unilateral surgery, and high education status ( p\u2009=\u20090.026, p\u2009=\u20090.016, and p\u2009=\u20090.032, respectively).
