MT: full macular thickness, GCIPL: ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer thickness, cMT and cGCIPL: average values after manual correction of layer segmentation in Spectralis OCT, mGCIPL: minimum GCIPL value calculated by Cirrus software. AUC: area under the ROC curve. SD: standard deviation. values were obtained with paired -test and posterior adjustment with FDR (false discovery rate).
