Fig. 2

Violin plots comparing the global choroidal vascular parameters among the C0, C1 and C2 groups. a1 ChT at the vertical meridian; b1 LA at the vertical meridian; c1 SA at the vertical meridian; d1 CVI at the vertical meridian; a2 ChT at the horizontal meridian; b2 LA at the horizontal meridian; c2 SA at the horizontal meridian; d2 CVI at the horizontal meridian. The median was represented by the middle line within each violin, and the lower and upper quartiles were represented by the lower and upper lines within each violin, respectively. C0, no macular lesions; C1, tessellated fundus; C2, diffuse chorioretinal atrophy; ChT, choroidal thickness; LA, luminal area; SA, stromal area; CVI, choroidal vascular index. n = 94, 1077 and 247 eyes in the C0, C1 and C2 groups, respectively. The level of significance was detected with GEE adjusted for age, AL and the correlation between both eyes of an individual, ^***P < 0.001
