General note Abstract<br/><br/> The visual impairment caused by cataracts and the accompanying surgery has a substantial impact on the quality of life of each individual. The purpose of the study was to assess post-operative cataract patients' vision-related quality of life in relation to their everyday activities. Purposive sampling was employed in this quantitative, comparative, and descriptive study design.<br/><br/> The research sample consisted of 224 responders. The cataract audit questionnaire "type of survey" related to the patient's experience post-operative was utilized. Originally conceived by Mats Lundström in 1992, this research instrument has been developed and adapted for use in other studies. <br/><br/> Characteristics of the respondents' profiles. The lowest age group of respondents is 31 to 40 years old, while the majority is between 61 and 70 years old. Married women make up the most of them. Moreover, over half of the participants do not have a job.<br/><br/> When comparing the vision-related quality of life concerning daily activities of postoperative cataract patients with their age, gender, marital status, and occupation, majority of the respondents answered that there is a great change in their daily activities, specifically reading, eating, watching, and walking. There is no significant difference between the respondents' demographic profile variables and their vision-related quality of life regarding activities of daily living. The vast majority of participants demonstrated a high degree of satisfaction.<br/><br/> This study concludes that the following conclusions can be drawn from the data to address the hypothesis regarding the respondent profile. The lowest age category of respondents is 31 to 40, while the majority is between 61 and 70, according to to the results. This indicates that older people are probably the age group most afflicted by cataracts. Based on responses from the respondents, women are associated with a higher incidence of cataracts globally compared to men. When it comes to work, a sizable portion of our respondents are unemployed, and having a poor socio-economic standing is linked to having to pay more for things like eye care. The study's findings also show that individuals who underwent cataract surgery expressed a high degree of satisfaction with the results. Finally, the sole means of curing cataracts is through surgery to improve vision. <br/><br/>
