Brief Summary
The management of childhood glaucoma (CG), childhood cataract (CC) and other birth defects affecting the eyes requires frequent hospital attendances and often multiple surgical and medical interventions, and are often associated with poor vision. Chronic medical conditions and vision impairment can affect quality of life (QoL). The QoL of children with the above conditions has not previously been evaluated.

Interventions
Eligibility Criteria
We will recruit children who attend the children's eye clinics at Moorfields Eye Hospital at City Road. We will recruit children with healthy eyes and normal vision amongst the siblings who accompany new patients in Child Vision Clinics and the paediatric A\&E. This approach will ensure that families have not previously been burdened with frequent hospital appointments.
You may qualify if:
- A) children with primary or secondary glaucoma B) children with cataract or previously treated for cataract C) children with microphthalmia, anophthalmia or coloboma D) control group: age-matched children without eye and vision problems
You may not qualify if:
- Ocular hypertension not requiring treatment; visually not significant cataract; inability to communicate in English; surgical intervention (incisional) within one month of potential date of completing questionnaire (before or after)
