This study was conducted in International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM) Eye Specialist Clinic (IESC), Kulliyyah of Medicine, Kuantan, Pahang, Malaysia and IIUM Optometry Clinic (IMC), Kulliyyah of Allied Health Sciences on 21 subjects ranging from moderate and high myopia using WASCA analyzer.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p><strong>Results: </strong>Results show that there is a positive relationship between moderate and high myopia to third- and fourth-order aberration (p<0.05) while QIRC mean scores of high myopia yield a lower mean value to total HOA as compare to moderate myopic group, indicating lower satisfaction on their visual performance. However, there is a weak correlation found between QIRC results and aberration (p>0.05).</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>This study found that there is a weak relationship between different degrees of myopia and aberration with QIRC questionnaire.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p><strong>Keywords: </strong>aberration, refractive error, myopia, QIRC, quality of life</p> <p> </p>}, number={3}, journal={INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ALLIED HEALTH SCIENCES}, author={Rosley, Nursyahidatul Fasha and Hilmi, Mohd Radzi and Md-Muziman-Syah, Md Mustafa}, year={2021}, month={Jun.}, pages={2267} }
