Three cases of Charles Bonnet Syndrome in patients with advanced glaucomatous visual field loss but preserved visual acuity.
Article in Acta ophthalmologica, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeTo describe three cases of Charles Bonnet syndrome (CBS) in glaucoma patients with preserved visual acuity.
methodsThree glaucoma patients who had taken part in a recent CBS study were interviewed about their hallucinations. The patients underwent macular optical coherence tomography (OCT) of both eyes. The visual function was evaluated with visual field measurement (Humphrey visual field analyser) and visual acuity testing (Snellen scale).
resultsAll three patients had preserved visual acuity (≥0.5 in both eyes) and at least one eye with advanced visual field defect (Mean Deviation worse than -12.00 decibel). They all reported vivid visual hallucinations with insight into the unreal nature of the hallucinations.
conclusionCharles Bonnet syndrome can occur in glaucoma despite preserved visual acuity. Awareness of this relation is desirable among clinicians, as it will improve communication with patients.
