Figure 2

The scatter plot matrix shows the association between postoperative vessel densities and other parameters including the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (pRNFL), the ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer (GCIPL) thickness, logMAR best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), visual field (VF) sensitivity, and disease duration. The pRNFL (r = 0.6602, p = 0.0074) and GCIPL (r = 0.7532, p = 0.0030) thicknesses showed significant correlations with the vessel densities in the RPC segment. Additionally, logMAR BCVA (r = − 0.5517, p = 0.0330) and temporal VF sensitivity loss (r = 0.5394, p = 0.0465) showed a significant correlation with SRCP vessel density. Otherwise, there was no significant correlation between vessel densities in the DRCP area and the inner retinal layer thicknesses or functional parameters, including VF sensitivity and BCVA.
