Retinal Thickness and the Structure/Function Relationship in the Eyes of Older Adults with Glaucoma
Fig 5
The correlation between visual field sensitivity and macular inner retinal thickness at each test point with retinal ganglion cell (RGC) displacement in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) subjects.
The correlation was determined between VF sensitivity and mRNFLT, GCIPLT, and GCCT at each test point in the POAG patients, after adjustment for RGC displacement. The grayscale; r ranges are shown at the bottom right. Upper case characters indicate Spearman’s rank correlation coefficients. Lower case characters indicate the P-values of the Spearman’s rank correlation coefficients. T indicates temporal, N indicates nasal. The area surrounded by the red frame shows the 4 central points. The area surrounded by the blue frame shows the area within 5.8°. * indicates P < 0.05, ** indicates P <0.01. Red letters indicate that the correlation was not significant. (A) Macular retinal nerve fiber layer (mRNFL), (B) ganglion cell layer + inner plexiform layer (GCIPL), (C) mRNFL + GCIPL (GCC).
