Methods From a community-based screening program a total of 158 patients with presenting visual acuity of less than 6/18 on either eye due to age-related cataract were informed about the possibility of surgical treatment. These patients were interviewed and re-examined 36 to 46 months after initial screening. The main reasons for not accepting surgery were obtained using a questionnaire. Vision function and vision-related quality of life scores were assessed in those who received and did not receive surgery. Results At the follow-up examination 116 of the 158 patients were available and 36 （31.0%） had undergone cataract surgery. Cases who chose surgery had higher education level than those who did not seek surgery （OR=2.64, 95% CI： 1.08-6.63, P=0.02）. There were no significant differences in vision function （P=0.11） or quality of life scores （P=0.16） between the surgery group and the non-surgery group. Main reasons for not having surgery included no perceived need （50.0%）, feeling of being ＂too old＂ （19.2%）, and worry about the quality of surgery （9.6%）.
