Summary
The purpose of the study is to explore whether a decision aid booklet is more effective than the usual booklet for patients to make an informed choice on cataract surgery.
Detailed description
Shared decision making is increasingly recommended to facilitate quality care, but there is a lack of cataract surgery decision aid in clinical practice. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a cataract surgery decision aid for cataract patients with different levels of health literacy. We will conduct a randomized controlled trial for cataract patients aged 50-80 years. We will randomly assign participants to either the intervention using a decision aid booklet or the one using a usual cataract booklet. The primary outcome is informed choice (defined as adequate knowledge and consistency between attitudes and intentions) 2 weeks after intervention.
