Influence of factors in explaining final visual acuity (logMAR) in anisometropic amblyopia (n=112)

R2 (%)β95% CI for βStandardised βt statisticSignificance
R2 statistic expressed as a percentage denotes the amount of variability in the final vision that this particular factor accounts for.
Correlation coefficient β is expressed in standard deviations to allow direct comparison of the gradients of the relative slopes.
