The Functional Vision Score-A New Method to Assess Visual Function.

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: To design and investigate a functional vision test to evaluate visual functioning in a wide range of daily activities. Methods: Sixty participants were included and divided into 4 groups of 15 each, according to the BCVA in their better eye: 20/20 to 20/25 (Group 1), 20/32 to 20/64 (Group 2), 20/100 to 20/200 (Group 3), and lower than 20/400 (Group 4). A 10-item test simulating activities of daily life was designed for the study, to evaluate patients' functional vision. Tasks were evaluated for successful completion and timed. For each task, the time to completion was divided by the mean of Group 1 participants, and the resulting ratio was scored. The total scores of all 10 tasks were termed the Functional Vision Score (FVS). Results: The mean FVS was 12.5 ± 5.3, 21.8 ± 5.8, 35.0 ± 15.0, and 48.3 ± 15.2 in Groups 1-4, respectively ( Conclusions: The FVS is simple to perform and assesses vision-related functionality, enabling a more comprehensive evaluation of visual function. It considers motor and cognitive abilities and not only visual acuity. It may serve clinicians and patients, as well as official agencies, who need a tool to determine functional vision.
