TABLE 2.

Spearman’s correlation coefficient between patients’ refractive and biometric parameters with the measured variables.

	Eye axial length (mm)	Refractive error (D)
HGF (pg/ml)	0.283	0.323
VEGF (pg/ml)	−0.827**	−0.635**
TAC (μmol/ml)	−0.719**	−0.763**
Total nitrite (μmol/l)	0.629**	0.658**
Refractive error (D)	0.865**

Coefficients were calculated using the data collected exclusively from the patients (n = 20) classified by diopters or eye axial length (mm). Significance is denoted by *p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01.
