  1. Affected HF was defined as a localized one-HF with localized RNFL defect or glaucomatous optic disc changes.
  2. Values are mean ± standard deviations.
  3. Bold indicates that the P value reached statistical significance (< 0.05).
  4. HF, hemifield; SD-OCT, spectral-domain optical coherence tomography; PERG, pattern electroretinogram; PPG, preperimetric glaucoma; RNFL, retinal nerve fiber layer; GCIPL, ganglion cell–inner plexiform layer.
