Table 2. Correlation between triplet variables at each clinic group.

Correlation values (Spearman test) between pairs of the continuous variables of the study (acuity difference, stereoacuity and imbalance factor), considering all patients and each group individually, classified according to amblyogenic factor (anisometropia, strabismus and mixed) and considering refractive response (accommodative and non-accommodative).

Comparison All patients Anisometropia Strabismus Mixed Accommodative Non-accomm.
Acuity difference vs Imbalance factor 0.575 (p < 0.01)* 0.390 (p = 0.06) 0.532 (p = 0.01)* 0.666 (p < 0.01)* 0.361 (p = 0.17) 0.664 (p < 0.01)*
Acuity difference vs Stereoacuity 0.601 (p < 0.01)* 0.678 (p < 0.01)* 0.428 (p = 0.03)* 0.412 (p = 0.02)* 0.168 (p = 0.53) 0.251 (p = 0.12)
Imbalance factor vs Stereoacuity 0.675 (p < 0.01)* 0.421 (p = 0.04)* 0.395 (p = 0.05) 0.560 (p < 0.01)* 0.154 (p = 0.57) 0.332 (p = 0.04)*

* Significant correlation because p-value is less than 0.05.
