Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
We report the case of a 34-year-old man with progressive loss of visual acuity in his left eye, who was diagnosed with pigmentary glaucoma with an intraocular pressure of 32 mmHg. Eight years previously, the patient had undergone refractive surgery (LASIK). Hypotensive treatment led to a significant refractive change accompanied by flattening of the corneal curvature. We propose that a high intraocular pressure acting on a cornea weakened by refractive surgery can provoke corneal steepening, inducing refractive changes even in the absence of keratectasia. Se presenta el caso de un varón de 34 años de edad, con pérdida progresiva de visión en el ojo izquierdo, que fue diagnosticado de glaucoma pigmentario con una presión intraocular de 32 mmHg. Ocho años antes, el paciente había sido intervenido con cirugía refractiva (lasik). El tratamiento hipotensor condujo a cambios refractivos significativos acompañados de aplanamiento de la curvatura corneal. Proponemos que una elevada presión intraocular, actuando sobre una córnea previamente debilitada por la cirugía refractiva, puede producir alteraciones en la superficie corneal, induciendo cambios refractivos incluso en ausencia de ectasia corneal.
