BCVA, best-corrected visual acuity; IOP, intraocular pressure; C/D ratio, cup-to-disc ratio. Data are expressed as means ± SD for normal continuous variables, median (Q1, Q3) for non-normal variables or numbers. P value was calculated by independent samples t-test, Mann-Whitney U test or Chi-squared test
