Reverse optic capture in cataract surgery: techniques, indications, and outcomes.
Review in Frontiers in ophthalmology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Reverse optic capture (ROC) is a surgical technique in which the optic of an intraocular lens (IOL) is positioned anterior to the anterior capsulotomy opening, while the haptics remain within the capsular bag. Described originally as a method to secure fixation in cases of posterior capsular rupture, ROC has since evolved as a surgical maneuver to address fixation of an IOL in the setting of a not-intact posterior capsule, toric IOL rotation, treatment of negative dysphotopsia, and correction of unanticipated postoperative hyperopia. This review highlights the development, indications, and outcomes of ROC, as well as its advantages, limitations, and future directions. Additionally, we present a case of ROC utilized to treat negative dysphotopsia. As surgical techniques and IOL technologies continues to evolve, further prospective investigation will help clarify the role of ROC in achieving stable and predictable outcomes in complex cataract and refractive surgery.
