Figure 5.

Comparisons of blood flow velocities in the temporal site of the short posterior ciliary artery at each postoperative interval between operative (closed circles) and nonoperative (open circles) eyes. (A) PSV. (B) EDV. There was a significant increase in the EDV of the temporal site of the short posterior ciliary artery in operative eyes (P = 0.005). (C) Significant decreases in the resistive index of the temporal site of the short posterior ciliary artery were seen in operative eyes (P = 0.000).

Note: Error bars indicate the standard deviation of the mean.

Abbreviations: EDV, end-diastolic velocity; PSV, peak systolic velocity.
