The Effect of Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty on Corneal Biomechanical Parameters Measured by Corvis ST.

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
Purpose: To determine the effect of upper eyelid blepharoplasty (UEB) surgery on corneal biomechanical parameters 4 months after the procedure. Methods: In this prospective longitudinal study, numerous corneal biomechanical parameters were evaluated before and 4 months after UEB surgery. All parameters were measured by the Corneal Visualization Scheimpflug Technology (Corvis ST, CVS, Oculus Optikgeräte GmbH, Germany) device. Results: The study included 35 eyelids of the right eyes of 35 patients with dermatochalasis who underwent UEB, with a mean age of 56.9 ± 8.9 (range, 40-75) years. With a Bonferroni corrected significance level of Conclusions: UEB surgery resulted in significant changes in A1 and A2 applanation times, HC time, IOP, and bIOP. These findings suggest that altered eyelid pressure after UEB surgery can impact specific corneal biomechanical properties. It is advisable for practitioners to evaluate postoperative IOP measurement carefully in patients undergoing UEB surgery due to its potential impact on corneal biomechanical properties.
