Abbreviations: VF, visual field; CCT, central corneal thickness, IOP, intraocular pressure. Variability measurements are ± SD, ranges or 95 percent confidence intervals. Wilcoxon rank sum test P-values reported representing the differences between AD and ED eyes.

*

P-values represent differences across diagnostic groups.
