Summary:Objective: The aim of this study was to examine the reliability and validity of an indicator system for assessing the quality of ophthalmic nursing. Methods: A questionnaire-based study was performed for 218 individuals in clinical nursing manage- ment using this indicator system. The resulting data were compiled and analyzed using Excel 2003 and SPSS 13.0, and tests of reliability and validity were conducted. Results: The indicator system yielded an overall Cronbach's o value of 0.948, a test-retest reliability of 0.793, 3-dimensional Cronbach's o values of 0.870-0.930, and a content validity of 0.92. Exploratory factor analysis was then performed to extract three common factors, which generated a cumulative contribution rate of 54.04%. The load range of each factor was 0.43-0.83. Conclusions: The indicator system for evaluating the quality of ophthalmic nursing has favorable reli- ability and validity, which means that it is a suitable clinical tool for assessing the quality of ophthalmic
