The p value from an ANOVA testing for mean differences is displayed after the group means.
The p values for the group comparisons have been corrected for multiple testing using the Holm–Bonferroni stepdown method.
Decreased accommodative amplitude = more than 2D below the minimum expected amplitude for age (15 - ¼ age); Decreased accommodative facility = less than 6 cycles per minute. Age normal accommodation = Neither AA or AF Decreased
