Impact of soft and rigid gas-permeable contact lenses on visual performance in mesopic conditions.
Article in Indian journal of ophthalmology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
contextEvaluation of visual quality in soft and rigid gas-permeable contact lens wearers, with an emphasis on twilight vision. PURPOSE: To assess the visual acuity and visual performance at dusk before and after soft and rigid gas-permeable contact lens (CL) correction in healthy subjects. SETTINGS AND
designThis prospective study was conducted in a tertiary eye-care center.
methodsSixty eyes corrected with soft contact lenses (SCLs) and 30 eyes with rigid gas-permeable contact lenses (RGPCLs) were enrolled in this study. Patients underwent corrected distance visual acuity with spectacles (CDVAs), corrected distance visual acuity with contact lenses (CDVAcl), and twilight vision (TV) testing (Vista Vision Far-Pola, DMD MedTech charts). Parameters were evaluated before and after the CL fitting and repeated 3 months after the baseline visit. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED: MedCalc for Windows, version 11.4 (MedCalc Software, Ostend, Belgium).
resultsRigid gas-permeable CL wear showed significant improvement in CDVAcl compared to wearing spectacles on both visits ( P = 0.0039 and P = 0.0003, respectively). TV with CLs was significantly better in both groups compared to the TV with spectacles at the baseline visit ( P = 0.0011 in SCL group; P = 0.0001 in RGPCL group), and at the follow-up visit, this significance was proven for the RGPCL group ( P = 0.001). Also, spectacle TV showed a significant improvement on the follow-up visit ( P = 0.0022 in SCL group; P = 0.0269 in RGPCL group).
conclusionContact lens wear improves visual performance compared to spectacles. TV results showed superiority of CLs compared to the spectacles, without a statistical difference regarding the CL type.
