Methodology of this study should provide information about disability caused by visual loss, specifically glaucoma, how difficulties in performing activities relate to standard clinical tests, and how they correlate to quality of life from patient's point of view. Subsequent papers will delineate findings and discuss their application.

Normal variations in personality characteristics influence how patients report their vision-specific HRQoL.

The ADREV is a valid instrument for the assessment of visual disability in patients with age-related macular degeneration. Furthermore, the data provided by this performance measure had stronger relationships with clinical indicators of visual impairment in comparison with self-report.

A validated scoring system based on errors is more effective when assessing visual disability during mobility testing than recording the time taken for course completion. The combined metric of ADREV errors noted divided by time taken was most predictive of all the methods used to evaluate visual disability during mobility testing.

Point-of-view cameras are cost-effective means of recording oculoplastics procedures. The authors feel simultaneously recording the surgeon's ergonomics and the corresponding instrument movements within the surgical field, from the "surgeon's view", will augment surgical education.
