  • Data are represented as average (95% CI). The statistical pairwise comparison of AUCs was performed using DeLong’s method.

  • *p<0.05 between HCP and OCT, after Bonferroni correction.

  • †p<0.05 between HVF and OCT, after Bonferroni correction.

  • ‡Values calculated at a disease prevalence of 3.54%.

  • AUC, area under the curve; HCP, handheld chromatic pupillometry; HVF, Humphrey Visual Field; NPV, negative predictive value; OCT, optical coherence tomography; PPV, positive predictive value.
