However, their use in eyecare is limited. This systematic review aimed to assess the existing evidence on the measurement properties of PREMs used to capture patient experiences of eyecare services. A comprehensive literature search was conducted across Web of Science Core Collection, Embase, PubMed, and Scopus to identify studies reporting the development and/or psychometric evaluation of PREMs in eyecare. The extracted measurement properties encompassed information on item development, content validity (the extent to which items are relevant, comprehensive, and understandable), structural validity (whether the items form the right scales), internal consistency (how well items measure underlying eyecare experience domains), cross-cultural validity, reliability, hypothesis testing, and responsiveness. Quality assessment, evaluation of measurement properties, evidence synthesis, and grading followed COSMIN methodology for systematic reviews. Thirteen studies were included, three of which evaluated 10 distinct PREMs, across settings, including low vision and primary/secondary eyecare. All ten PREMs met criteria for COSMIN Category B (potentially recommended, further validation needed). However, most lacked sufficient evidence for content validity and lacked supporting evidence for structural validity. None demonstrated adequate reliability, and none reported using Item Response Theory or Rasch Measurement Theory. Consequently, there was insufficient evidence to classify any of the identified PREMs into COSMIN recommendation Category A (recommended for use). Future studies on PREMs in eyecare should aim to strengthen the evidence for content and structural validity and provide robust proof of their reliability.</p>","PeriodicalId":12125,"journal":{"name":"Eye","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2026-10-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149106344","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Advances in ocular prosthetics have enabled limited recovery of light perception, motion detection, and coarse object recognition through anterior segment devices such as keratoprostheses and through posterior segment interfaces including retinal, suprachoroidal, optic nerve, and cortical implants. Parallel progress in organ-on-a-chip systems and retinal organoids is providing increasingly sophisticated platforms for disease modelling and therapeutic development. Despite these advances, issues of long-term biocompatibility, signal fidelity, and surgical complexity continue to constrain clinical performance. Emerging approaches that combine stem cell-derived tissues, biofabrication, and hybrid bioelectronic constructs offer promising avenues for next-generation vision restoration, although current production remains limited to early-stage or small-scale systems. Effective integration of these technologies also requires structured vision-rehabilitation strategies to harness neuroplasticity and support functional adaptation. This review synthesises recent progress across prosthetic, rehabilitative, and regenerative domains and outlines key opportunities for future translational development.</p>","PeriodicalId":12125,"journal":{"name":"Eye","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2026-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149106388","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
