Initial clinical outcomes of two different phakic posterior chamber IOLs for the correction of myopia and myopic astigmatism.
Article in Graefe's archive for clinical and experimental ophthalmology = Albrecht von Graefes Archiv fur klinische und experimentelle Ophthalmologie, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06849375 (Corneal Endothelial Assessment After Posterior Chamber Phakic Intraocular Lens Implantation), which is not on this map. Cited by 3 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

Abstract
purposeThe purpose of this study is to document clinical outcomes of 2 posterior chamber phakic intraocular lenses with a central hole, the implantable contact lens (IPCL V2.0) and the Visian implantable collamer lens V4c (ICL), in myopic and myopic-astigmatic patients.
methodsRetrospective study comprising 111 IPCL (60 toric) and 106 ICL implantations (59 toric) with a follow-up of 3 months to 2 years. Primary outcome was uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) improvement; secondary outcomes were changes in corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), and complications.
resultsAt 3 months postoperatively, 76% of plano targeted eyes in the IPCL group and 83% of eyes in the ICL group had a UDVA of 20/20 or better. Ninety-six percent of IPCL implanted eyes and 94% of ICL implanted eyes had a postoperative UDVA within 1 line of preoperative CDVA. One eye lost one line of CDVA after IPCL implantation, and no lines were lost after ICL implantation; 33.7% of IPCL eyes and 40.6% of ICL eyes gained at least 1 line of CDVA. Cataract extraction (none because of anterior subcapsular opacification) was performed after 4 ICL implantations, none after IPCL implantation. Endothelial cell loss was mild with both pIOLs. Mean IOP was not clinically significantly affected at 3 months or thereafter.
conclusionsWe observed equally excellent (statistically not different) results with the IPCL and ICL for the correction of myopia and myopic astigmatism, at least up to 2 years post implantation. Longer follow-up is needed to determine the stability of these results especially with the IPCL.
