Linear mixed-effects model. BCVA: best-corrected visual acuity; IOP: intraocular pressure; OCT: optical coherence tomography; cpRNFL; circumpapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness; mRNFL: macular retinal nerve fiber layer thickness; GCIPL: ganglion cell layer thickness+ inner plexiform layer thickness; GCC: ganglion cell complex thickness (mRNFL + GCIPL); HFA: Humphrey Field Analyzer; MD: mean deviation.
