Possible CVAQC scores (FVA) extend from −3.00 (normal visual ability) to +2.80 (severe visual impairment). Possibe IVI-C scores are between 0 and 96 (96=normal VR-QoL); participants in this study reported markedly reduced VR-QoL. Possible PedsQL scores range from 0 to 100 (100=normal HR-QoL); in this study, scores were severely reduced in all versions and subscales of the instrument (parent report, family report, self-report, physical and psychosocial subscores).
