Outcomes of mini-monovision with monofocal, enhanced monofocal and extended depth-of-focus intraocular lenses.
Review in Frontiers in medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Purpose: Mini-monovision is a vision correction technique that allows for a broader spectrum of spectacle independence while minimizing anisometropia. This systemic review aims to evaluate the clinical outcomes of pseudophakic mini-monovision with three types of intraocular lenses (IOLs): monofocal, enhanced monofocal, and extended depth of focus (EDOF). Methods: A comprehensive literature search was conducted using PubMed and MEDLINE to identify studies reporting mini-monovision outcomes within the three categories of IOLs up to July 2024. Inclusion criteria were studies with more than 20 patients, target refraction to achieve mini-monovision difference in the fellow eye, and minimum follow-up of 3 months. The primary outcome measure was uncorrected binocular intermediate visual acuity (UCIVA). The secondary outcomes were binocular uncorrected distance visual acuity (UCDVA), binocular uncorrected near visual acuity (UCNVA), patient-reported outcomes measures (PROMs), spectacle independence, contrast sensitivity, photic phenomenon, enhancement surgeries and IOL exchange. Results: A total of 113 studies were screened, of which 19, with a total of 1,530 patients, were eligible for inclusion in this review. Mean logMAR binocular UCIVA was 0.16 ± 0.01, 0.11 ± 0.06, 0.08 ± 0.07 ( Conclusion: While enhanced monofocal and EDOF IOLs may provide slightly better binocular intermediate visual outcomes and higher spectacle independence compared to monofocal lenses with regards to mini-monovision and intermediate vision performance, the differences are not statistically significant. All three IOL types exhibit high patient satisfaction rates when choosing a mini-monovision approach with decreased dependence on spectacles.
