Table 2. Outcomes of Ocular Surface Disease Index scores and keratograph analysis in the glaucoma and control groups.

Values are represented as mean ± standard deviation.

The Mann-Whitney test was employed to determine statistical significance. Bold values indicate statistically significant findings at p < 0.05.

Glaucoma group = total OSDI (0-77.08); vision-related OSDI (0-43.75); ocular discomfort-related OSDI (0-45.83); first NIKBUT (1.34-24.92); average NIKBUT (1.91-24.92).

Control group = total OSDI (0-64.58); vision-related OSDI (0-41.67); ocular discomfort-related OSDI (0-33.33); first NIKBUT (3.25-24.92); average NIKBUT (4.62-24.92).

OSDI = Ocular Surface Disease Index; NIKBUT = non-invasive keratograph tear break-up time
