Table 3.

Ocular phenotypes based on Piezo1 e756del variants among eyes of individuals of African descent. Data are presented as mean (95% confidence interval) for continuous variables and count (percentage) for categorical variables. RNFL = retinal nerve fiber layer, GCC = ganglion cell complex, VF = visual field, ONH = optic nerve head.
