AL = axial length; CI = confidence interval; OR = odds ratio; SD = standard deviation; SFCT = subfoveal choroidal thickness.

a Axial length below mean – 1 SD = 23.42 – 1.22 = 22.20 mm, use the cut off value of 22 for convenience.

bAxial length above mean + 1 SD = 23.42 + 1.25 = 24.67 mm, use the cut off value of 25 for convenience.

c Subfoveal choroidal thickness below mean – 1 SD = 282.7 – 45.2 = 237.5 μm, use the cut off value of 240 for convenience.
