The aim was to evaluate mood, depressed mood and quality of life of athletes with visual impairment, as well as the dissimilarity between these constructs and sports practice. A cross-sectional study was carried out with 44 athletes with low vision or total blindness (26.8 ± 6.0 years of age, 72.7% men): 11 five-a-side football players, 14 goalball players, 2 athletics and 17 judo athletes. The Portuguese Brazilian versions of the following instruments were used: (i) Profile of Mood States (POMS); (ii) Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and (iii) Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36). Participants presented the desirable iceberg profile for POMS, 81.8% presented "no risk" of depressive disorder and all scores of SF-36 domains were above average. Positive correlation was found between the duration of the training session and the "vigor" factor of the POMS, among others. The study participants presented a positive profile in mood states, a low risk of depressive disorder and a positive perception of quality of life. There seems to be closeness of elements of sports practice with states of humor and domains of quality of life, and therefore must be accompanied.
