Assessment examines AAS correlation with citation counts in peer-reviewed ophthalmology articles, indicating open access might enhance visibility.
Background: The Altmetric Attention Score (AAS) is a quantitative measure of the attention, or "mentions," that a research output, such as a journal article or data set, has received from various sources, including news, social media, policy documents, blogs, and online reference managers. Our objective was to examine the relationship between AAS, citation count, and open access status of peer-reviewed ophthalmology articles over a 10-year period.
