1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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: The purpose of this study was to investigate, through theoretical modeling and experiment, the effect of chromatic aberration (CA) on white-light contrast sensitivity (CS) when higher-order aberrations (HOAs) are corrected in the human eye in screen-based vision. Methods: Monochromatic aberrations and CA were measured in 10 subjects with normal color vision using an adaptive optics vision simulator (AOVS) under 6 mm pupil diameter. The modulation transfer function (MTF) was calculated for 6 conditions: with and without HOAs under monochromatic red, monochromatic green, and white-light, using 519 nm green light as the best-focus reference. Subsequently, white-light CS was measured under three best-focus conditions and green-light CS was measured under the green-light best-focus condition, both before and after HOAs correction. Results: The presence of HOAs significantly improved the MTF under both green and white illumination in the presence of CA. Furthermore, the MTFs were approximately constant across red, green, and white-light conditions when HOAs were included. Under three best-focus conditions, white-light logCS demonstrated a significant decline following HOAs correction (P < 0.01). Under green-light best-focus condition, green-light logCS demonstrated a significant improvement following HOAs correction (P = 0.001). Conclusions: The results indicate that the presence of CA in the human eye can influence the outcomes of HOAs correction in screen-based vision. Prior to implementing only HOAs correction in clinical practice, it is necessary to evaluate the effect of CA varying with individuals using an AOVS. Translational Relevance: This research bridges the gap between optical theory and clinical practice, thereby guiding the refinement of wavefront-guided surgeries and personalized intraocular lenses.
