“…The CVC-q focuses on the presence and severity of subjective visual complaints or visual difficulties in daily-life activities in patients with acquired brain injury, such as reading or mobility. Although the validity and reliability of the CVC-q are not yet known, the Cerebral Vision Screening questionnaire, where the CVC-q is based on, was found to show good convergent validity (correlation coefficient of 0.64) and good interrater test-retest reliability (correlation coefficient of 0.76) in individuals following stroke [26]. The internal consistency of the Cerebral Vision Screening questionnaire was not evaluated [26].…”

“…The CVC-q originates from the Cerebral Vision Screening questionnaire developed by Kerkhoff, Schaub and Zihl [25]. This originally 10-item questionnaire aims to measure visual complaints in patients with acquired brain injury and was found to be valid in individuals following stroke [26]. For application in visual rehabilitation centers, this questionnaire has been modified to the 43-item CVC-q.…”

Background and objectives Patients with neurodegenerative disorders often experience impairments in visual function. In research and clinical care, visual problems are primarily understood as objective visual impairments. Subjective complaints, referring to complaints from a patient's perspective, receive less attention, while they are of utmost clinical importance to guide assessment and rehabilitation. A 21-item Screening of Visual Complaints questionnaire (SVC) was developed for the assessment of subjective visual complaints in patients with neurodegenerative disorders. This prospective study aims to evaluate the psychometric properties of the SVC in a large community sample. Methods A stratified convenience sample of 1,461 healthy Dutch participants (18-95 years) without severe self-reported neurological, ophthalmological or psychiatric conditions completed the SVC, Cerebral Visual Complaints questionnaire (CVC-q), National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire-25 (NEI-VFQ-25), Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function-A (BRIEF-A), Questionnaire for Experiences of Attention Deficits (Fragebogen erlebter Defizite der Aufmerkzamkeit; FEDA), Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21) and the Structured Inventory for Malingered Symptomatology (SIMS) online. After two weeks, 66 participants completed the SVC again. We evaluated the factor structure, internal consistency, convergent and divergent validity, and test-retest reliability of the SVC. Results The sample was split in two subsamples to perform exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses. In the first subsample, the exploratory factor analysis extracted three factors from

“…Before starting any assessments, a systematic anamnesis of the most frequently encountered neurovisual deficits should be performed (Table 1) as it reduces the clinician's risk to overlook relevant disorders. Patients with intact awareness can Neumann et al 2016). On the right side, the purpose of each question is illustrated and the putative underlying disorder and tests to be performed.…”

“…[36–41], however some have not been validated e.g. [37, 40], whilst four [36, 38, 39, 41] have limited predictive validation through establishing cut-off points and comparing rates of screened positives on the questionnaire against confirmed CVI diagnoses. The present study focuses on the CVI Questionnaire [39] and the Five Questions [38].…”

IntroductionCerebral Visual Impairment (CVI) is the most common cause of visual impairment in children in the developed world and appears to be more prevalent in children with additional support needs (ASN). There is an urgent need for routine screening for CVI, particularly in children with ASN, however, current screening questionnaires for CVI have limited validation. The aim of this study was to evaluate two screening tools: the Five Questions and the CVI Questionnaire. Additionally, the distribution of CVI across neurodevelopmental disorders is unknown. This too was investigated.MethodsAn online survey was completed by 535 parents. The survey was advertised via social media, CVI websites and parent email systems of four schools. The survey comprised of the Five Questions, the CVI Questionnaire and additional questions regarding the child’s diagnoses. Whether or not a child had a diagnosis of CVI and/or additional neurodevelopmental disorders was based on parental report.ResultsBased on parent reports, both the screening tools accurately screened for CVI diagnoses in children. The Five Questions and the CVI Questionnaire have construct validity (as determined through factor analysis), high internal consistency (as determined by Cronbach’s alpha) and convergent validity (as determined by correlation analysis of the raw scores of each questionnaire). This study also highlights that among children with neurodevelopmental disorders, a large proportion have parent-reported CVI (23%-39%) and potential CVI (6.59–22.53%; as identified by the questionnaires).ConclusionThe current study demonstrates that the Five Questions and CVI Questionnaire have good convergent validity, internal consistency and a reliable factor structure and may therefore be suitable as screening tools. The study also highlights that reported or potential CVI is evident in a large proportion of children with neurodevelopmental disorders.
