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
Purpose: To investigate refractive and visual outcomes and complications of the Supracor procedure to treat presbyopia. Methods: A total of 123 eyes from 68 presbyopic patients with hyperopia were enrolled in this prospective, nonrandomized, clinical trial. The Supracor procedure was performed using the Technolas excimer laser 217P (Technolas Perfect Vision GmbH). Follow-up eye examinations were performed at postoperative day 1, month 1, and month 6. Results: All 123 surgeries were uneventful. At 6 months postoperatively, uncorrected distance visual acuity was 20/20 or better in 27 (22.0%) eyes and 20/25 or better in 45 (36.6%) eyes. At 6 months postoperatively, 35 (28.5%) eyes lost 1 line and 13 (10.6%) eyes lost 2 lines of corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA). At 6 months postoperatively, uncorrected near visual acuity was 20/20 or better in 95 (77.2%) eyes and 20/25 or better in 110 (89.4%) eyes. At 6 months postoperatively, 6 (4.9%) eyes lost 1 line of corrected near visual acuity. Conclusions: The Supracor presbyopia procedure showed good near visual acuity outcomes over 6 months follow-up but loss of CDVA occurred in 39.1% of eyes. © 2013 Wichtig Editore.
