Comparison of aphakic/pseudophakic subjects with and without glaucoma
| No glaucoma (n = 428) | Glaucoma (n = 54) | p Value | OR (95% CI) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| *Values pertain to the whole group consisting of aphakes and pseudophakes. | ||||
| OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval; PEX, pseudoexfoliation; PAS, peripheral anterior synechiae; Sx-Ex, time from surgery to current examination. | ||||
