SD-OCT findings. SD-OCT analysis considering available 14 patients (n = 28 eyes) and 19 controls (n = 38 eyes) with macular scans as well as 15 patients (n = 30 eyes) and 18 controls (n = 36 eyes) with peripapillary scans: Means, standard deviations and p-values are provided for each macular retinal layer volume and the peripapillary RNFL (pRNFL) thickness at baseline, comparing microangiopathic ischemic stroke patients to the control group, n.s. indicating no significant difference. P-values < 0.05 were considered as statistically significant (GEE analysis with Bonferroni correction for multiple testing)
