Table 2.

Group mean (± SD) tissue thicknesses (conjunctival epithelium, conjunctival stroma and scleral) for those with nasal UVAF, temporal UVAF and both nasal and temporal UVAF, compared to those without nasal or temporal UVAF.

Temporal tissue thickness (µm)	Conjunctival epithelium	Conjunctival stroma	Sclera
Nasal only UVAF group	−3.9 ± 4.8	11.4 ± 4.3	9.4 ± 5.8
Temporal only UVAF group	−1.9 ± 4.9	25.8 ± 4.9	9.6 ± 5.3
Both nasal and temporal UVAF group	−3.7 ± 5.2	23.6 ± 4.5	26.2 ± 5.0
