From: Effect of silicone oil on peripapillary capillary density in patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment

Fig. 2

The whisker plot of global radial peripapillary capillaries (RPC) vessel density (VD) measured before and at 10 days, 1 month and 3 months after silicone oil removal (SOR) in patients who underwent pars plana vitrectomy and silicone oil tamponade for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment repair. The mean, median, and 25th to 75th percentile of RPC VD is shown by cross, horizontal line, and box, respectively. An increase in peripapillary vessel density after SOR is revealed by repeated measures ANOVA (F = 5.417, P = 0.002). The results of Bonferroni’s post hoc test are indicated by P values above horizontal bars
