ONL thickness (µm) P  = 0.029 rs  = 0.58 P = 0.122 rs = 0.43 P = 0.227 rs = 0.35
IS+OS thickness (µm) P  = 0.011 rs  = 0.66 P = 0.114 rs = 0.44 P  = 0.029 rs  = 0.58
Width of remaining IS ellipsoid P = 0.483 rs = 0.20 P = 0.911 rs = 0.03 P = 0.349 rs = 0.27

Spearman's correlation.

NND: nearest-neighbor distance, ONL: outer nuclear layer, IS: inner segment of photoreceptor, OS: outer segment of photoreceptor.
