Table 2.

Intergroup comparison of patients with an intact IS/OS layer and patients with an irregular IS/OS layer

Intact IS/OS Irregular IS/OS P*
Number of eyes 29 22
BCVA pre-surgery ± SD 0.30 ± 0.04 0.19 ± 0.02 0.042
Mean CFT pre-surgery ± SD 404 ± 72.15 422 ± 76.30 0.555
Cystic macular edema, n (%) 0 (0) 14 (63.63) 0.001
Macular pseudohole, n (%) 1 (3.44) 2 (9.09) 0.571
Mean CFT post-surgery ± SD 312.67 ± 59.89 344.08 ± 41.95 0.126
BCVA post-surgery 0.69 ± 0.07 0.32 ± 0.07 0.002
Change in BCVA ± SD 0.44 ± 0.24 0.08 ± 0.18 0.001

Notes: Change in BCVA = BCVA after surgery – BCVA before surgery.

Mann–Whitney test, Wilcoxon test.

Abbreviations: BCVA, best-corrected visual acuity; CFT, central foveal thickness; IS/OS, inner segment/outer segment; SD, standard deviation.
