To analyse what eyecare clinicians think about which symptoms are associated with refractive, accommodative and binocular dysfunctions, and which of them should be used in a questionnaire of visual symptomatology. A Delphi method was developed, using a coordinating group and a group of experts, and the process was conducted in three rounds. In the first round we compiled a list of 34 symptoms from the scientific literature and additional 10 suggested by the experts. These symptoms were categorized by each expert to the associated visual anomalies and working distance. In the second round, the relationship between each symptom and visual dysfunctions was analysed using a numeric scale. In the third round, the appearance or absence of the 44 symptoms in a questionnaire was assessed. Symptoms most frequently assigned by the experts to visual anomalies were related to near vision. Symptoms of blurred vision, difficulty focusing from one distance to another and close one eye obtained the highest mean score for refractive, accommodative and binocular disorders respectively. The experts were in agreement for 15 symptoms and in disagreement for 5 symptoms that should appear in a questionnaire. Delphi method has been used to identify the symptoms related to visual dysfunctions according to eyecare professionals and has allowed to arrive at appropriate symptoms to be asked for in a visual symptomatology questionnaire.
