Figure 5

Boxplot of average local retinal sensitivity (RS) based on the baseline outer retinal structure integrity grading. (A) Average baseline local retinal sensitivity depending on the outer retinal structure integrity grading using optical coherence tomography. ELM: external limiting membrane; ISE: inner segment ellipsoid; RPE: retinal pigment epithelium, ELM is grade as absent/complete while ISE and RPE are graded as absent/disrupted/complete (B-D) Average local retinal sensitivity change depending on the baseline ELM/ISE/RPE integrity grading, respectively. Average local RS was worse as baseline outer retinal structure is damaged. However, disrupted or complete ISE integrity showed no difference.
