Percent changes in IOP = (postoperative IOP 6 months after the surgery − preoperative IOP)/preoperative IOP × 100.

Percent changes in deep VD = (postoperative deep VD − preoperative deep VD)/preoperative deep VD × 100.

B, unstandardized regression coefficient; β, standardized regression coefficient; CI, confidence interval; IOP, intraocular pressure; NS, not significant; VD, vessel density.
