VA=Visual Acuity; SE = Standard Error;

*

P-value was from one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA).

P value was from Monte-Carlo fisher exact test.

P-value in the parenthesis was calculated with category of unknown into comparison, while P-value not in the parenthesis was calculated excluding category of unknown into comparison.
