In the present study, patients with unilateral XFS without glaucomatous optic nerve changes or visual field defects showed thinner RNFL and GCC thicknesses than those of control individuals. Besides the impact of IOP, we postulate that the reasons for the thin RNFL and GCC thickness in the present study are related to (1) systemic, or (2) local vascular factors, and Data are presented as mean ± SD (range); P value was calculated by one-way ANOVA ANOVA analysis of variance, RNFL retinal nerve fiber layer, XFS exfoliation syndrome a Although the p value by ANOVA demonstrated statistical borderline significance, post-hoc analysis was performed using Tukey's test. In this study, thin RNFL and GCC thicknesses were also observed in the fellow eyes of patients with unilateral XFS, as compared with that of healthy control subjects. ./cache/cord-012719-5qa0e4xt.txt ./txt/cord-012719-5qa0e4xt.txt
