Previous studies have highlighted difficulties in self-concept and the presence of depression in people with a degenerative visual pathology visual (Retinitis Pigmentosa), but it is not known if there is a relationship between these variables, the estimate of the number of support people in case of need and age; this being the first objective of the study, carried out with 51 people affected (36.5% men and 63.5% women) (M age = 41.85); and secondly, to analyze if depression level could influence some selfconcept factors. Instruments such as the Tennessee Self-Concept Scale (Fitts, 1965), the Beck Depression Inventory (Beck, Rush, Shaw, & Emery, 1979) and a sociodemographic questionnaire were used. A Pearson's correlation analysis revealed that the number of support people correlates with the factors of physical and personal self-concept, age is associated with higher scores on depression, associating this to lower scores in the two factors above-mentioned. The MANCOVA made confirms that people with higher level of depression were perceived more negatively in all selfconcept factors. It concludes recommending to prevent depression and to promote the improvement of the self-concept, in order to enhance the personal competence, the quality of life and visual functioning of this people.
