Inflammation Scores and Inflammatory Cell Infiltration Score from Histopathology Examination

		Inflammatory cell infiltration score
Treatment regimen	Total inflammatory score of anterior section	Anterior section	Posterior section
Group 1 (n = 8): Control - No treatment	4.4 ± 2.6	0.7 ± 1.0	2.9 ± 1.2
Group 2 (n = 3): 15% DSP, 15 min, 4 doses	0.2 ± 0.4a	0.0 ± 0.2a	0.1 ± 0.3a
Group 3 (n = 2): 15% DSP, 10 min, 1 dose	1.0 ± 1.1b	0.2 ± 0.4b	1.8 ± 1.5b
Group 4 (n = 3): 8% DSP, 10 min, 1 dose	1.8 ± 0.7b	0.3 ± 0.7b	1.2 ± 0.9a
Group 5 (n = 3): 8% DSP, 5 min, 4 doses	1.4 ± 1.7b	0.2 ± 0.8a	1.9 ± 1.6b
Group 6 (n = 3): 4% DSP, 10 min, 2 doses	1.9 ± 1.1c	0.3 ± 0.7b	2.9 ± 1.0 (P = 0.7)

Statistical differences in the average scores observed between the control group and each DSP-Visulex treatment group were assessed by the Wilcoxon rank-sum test with ^aP < 0.001, ^bP < 0.01, and ^cP < 0.05.
