Outcomes of objective ocular examinations of two groups.
| Outcomes | Acute GVHD | Chronic GVHD | (, eyes = 42) | (, eyes = 254) |
| Best corrected visual acuity (logMAR) | Mean ± SD | 0.23 ± 0.24 | 0.24 ± 0.27 | Z | −0.165 | (Mann–Whitney U test) | 0.869 |
| Intraocular pressure (mmHg) | Mean ± SD | 13.42 ± 2.04 | 14.11 ± 2.70 | Z | −1.566 | (Mann–Whitney U test) | 0.117 |
| Corneal fluorescein staining | Mean ± SD | 2.5 ± 3.8 | 5.8 ± 3.9 | Z | −5.726 | (Mann–Whitney U test) | <0.001 |
| Schirmer tear secretion score (mm) | Mean ± SD | 9.0 ± 3.6 | 2.8 ± 2.0 | Z | −9.623 | (Mann–Whitney U test) | <0.001 |
