A total of 149 subjects aged 41\u201375 years with myopic presbyopia were recruited: 108 had low myopia and 41 had high myopia. The RSVP questionnaire was administered. Rasch analysis was performed on five subscales: perception, expectation, functionality, symptoms, and problems with glasses. Highly myopic subjects had a significantly lower mean QOL score (51.65), compared to low myopes (65.24) (p &lt; 0.001). They also had a significantly lower functionality score with glasses (49.38), compared to low myopes (57.00) (p = 0.018), and they had a worse functionality score without glasses (29.12), compared to low myopes (36.24) (p = 0.045). Those who wore progressive addition lenses (PAL) in the high-myope group (n = 25) scored significantly better, compared to those who wore single-vision distance (SVD) lenses (n = 14), with perception scores of 61.19 and 46.94, respectively (p = 0.029). Highly myopic presbyopes had worse overall QOL and functionality, both with and without glasses, compared to presbyopes with low myopia. High-myopic PAL users had a better perception outcome than SVD lens wearers. Low-myopic PAL wearers had a better QOL than SVD wearers.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm10081589","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,9]],"date-time":"2021-04-09T10:05:21Z","timestamp":1617962721000},"page":"1589","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["Quality of Life in Presbyopes with Low and High Myopia Using Single-Vision and Progressive-Lens Correction"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"10","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3852-6318","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Adeline","family":"Yang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Essilor R&amp;D AMERA, Essilor International, Singapore 339346, Singapore"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Si Ying","family":"Lim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Chemical &amp; Life Sciences, Singapore Polytechnic, Singapore 139651, Singapore"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yee Ling","family":"Wong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Essilor R&amp;D AMERA, Essilor International, Singapore 339346, Singapore"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anna","family":"Yeo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Education &amp; Professional Services, Essilor AMERA, Singapore 339338, Singapore"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Narayanan","family":"Rajeev","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Chemical &amp; Life Sciences, Singapore Polytechnic, Singapore 139651, Singapore"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Bj\u00f6rn","family":"Drobe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Essilor R&amp;D AMERA, Essilor International, Singapore 339346, Singapore"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"World Population Prospects\u2014Population Division (2020, January 15).
