Health-related quality of life in Canadians with asthma: A case-control study using census data

These results provided evidence that in Canada, having asthma significantly worsens asthma patients' overall HRQoL and imposes significant impacts on the patients' vision and pain/discomfort. Therefore, there is room for improvement in the currently available asthma therapies so patients could achieve better HRQoL; particular focus should be given to the pain/discomfort and vision health domains.
