Ocular prosthesis motility and quality of life in subjects with custom ocular prostheses: A superimposed limbus test approach - A cross-sectional study.
Observational study in Journal of Indian Prosthodontic Society, 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
aimThe purpose of this study was to objectively evaluate ocular prosthesis motility and its correlation with quality of life (QoL) among subjects using custom ocular prostheses. SETTINGS AND
designCross-sectional analytical observational study conducted at the Dental and Oral Hospital, Hasanuddin University. MATERIALS AND
methodsForty subjects with custom ocular prostheses were evaluated. Prosthesis motility was assessed using the limbus test scheme and digitally analyzed using a superimposed method in CorelDRAW. QoL was assessed using a validated questionnaire. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED: Mann-Whitney U, Kruskal-Wallis, Wilcoxon signed-rank, and Spearman correlation tests.
resultsCompared with the contralateral normal eye, prosthetic motility showed a significant reduction, with an average loss ranging from 68% to 79%. Adduction movement was significantly associated with age (P = 0.016) and the duration of prosthesis use (P = 0.007). A significant positive correlation was found between prosthesis motility (objective measurement) and perceived QoL across several domains (ρ =0.471-0.577, P < 0.05).
conclusionThe average QoL of custom ocular prosthesis users was rated as good. Prosthesis motility was significantly associated with age and duration of use. Furthermore, motility has a notable impact on subject satisfaction and overall QoL.
