Differences between protocol and review

We specified in the protocol for this review that ocular discomfort was part of the primary outcome (Vedula 2008). In response to peer review, and acknowledging the reviewers' concerns about lack of validated measures for assessing ocular discomfort, we revised the description of the primary outcome for the review by omitting ocular discomfort as of 2013 (Jasper 2013).

For this review update, we outlined methods to assess the certainty of evidence using the GRADE approach and to present a 'Summary of findings' table when data become available, as recommended by Cochrane.

Outcome

The PICO model is widely used and taught in evidence-based health care as a strategy for formulating questions and search strategies and for characterizing clinical studies or meta-analyses. PICO stands for four different potential components of a clinical question: Patient, Population or Problem; Intervention; Comparison; Outcome.

See more on using PICO in the Cochrane Handbook.
