  1. aMann–Whitney U test.
  2. bA macular scan of each participant’s eye was obtained using the macular cube 200 × 200 scan protocols. Ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer thickness (GCIPL) values were obtained using the ganglion cell analysis algorithm from an elliptical annulus localized on the fovea center; the average GCIPL thickness were measured.
  3. CThe average retinal nerve fiber layer thickness measurements were also assessed with the 6 mm × 6 mm data cube captured by the Optic Disc Cube 200 × 200 scan (Cirrus™; Carl Zeiss Meditec, Inc., Dublin, CA, USA).
