Review of current status of refractive lens exchange and role of dysfunctional lens index as its new indication.
Review in Indian journal of ophthalmology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Advances in phacodynamics and intraocular lenses (IOLs) has given second life to clear lens extraction (CLE) or refractive lens exchange (RLE) in recent years for the treatment of patients with high degrees of myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism who are unsuitable for laser surgery. Furthermore, presbyopia treatment with RLE supplemented with multifocal or accommodating IOLs gives the dual benefit of correcting refractive errors with eliminating the need for cataract surgery. RLE should be consistent and effective for a good refractive outcome along with safety during the surgical procedure and in the postoperative period. Therefore, proper patient selection and accurate preoperative protocols for IOL power calculations and selection are important along with an appropriate choice of surgical procedure. Dysfunctional lens index is a new objective tool that helps surgeon to aid in diagnosing, counseling, and educating patients with dysfunctional clear lens. In this article, we give a brief overview about the application of RLE for individuals with presbyopia and refractive errors like myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism who are not suitable for laser correction.
