Diagnostic Ability and Capacity of Optical Coherence Tomography-Angiography to Detect Retinal and Vascular Changes in Patients with Fibromyalgia

Table 4

Peripapillary measurements (in microns) of the retinal nerve fiber layer in patients with fibromyalgia and healthy controls using the two different protocols for spectralis OCT—the RNFL-G protocol and the RNFL-Axonal analytics protocol. Bold numbers indicate , asterisks indicate significant values according to the Bonferroni’s correction for multiple comparisons ().
