Eye Movement Variations in Indoor, Outdoor, and Reading Scenarios and Their Implications for Myopia.
Article in Journal of ophthalmology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background and Aims: To quantitatively measure eye movement behaviors in indoor, outdoor, and reading scenarios to understand their potential link to myopia. Methods: Forty-one healthy adult subjects freely viewed indoor and outdoor scenes and performed reading activities using virtual reality (VR). Eye movement data were recorded with the built-in eye tracker of the VR headset (HTC Vive Pro Eye). Gaze and fixation data were calculated and reported for eight regions of the visual field. Results: Indoor scenes exhibited a more pronounced downward gaze than outdoor environments. Significant differences ( Conclusion: Downward gaze and fixation behaviors are more prevalent in reading and indoor environments. Given that downward eye movements can induce instantaneous axial elongation, our results suggested a potential biomechanical pathway for myopia progression through optic nerve traction and ocular tissue remodeling. This study underscores the need for further research to explore the specific role of eye movement behaviors in the progression of myopia, especially in real-life settings.
