Macular Thickness and Macular Sensitivity. Large square and circle represent mean values of control and multiple sclerosis (MS) groups, respectively. Error bars represent the 95% confidence interval. Mean macular sensitivity in decibels of control subjects and MS patients was 18.2 (95% CI, 17.8–18.7) and 16.5 (95% CI, 16.1–16.8), respectively, corresponding to a mean difference of 1.7 dB (95% CI, 1.1–2.4; P < 0.001). Scatterplot demonstrates no relationship between average macular thickness and macular sensitivity in control subjects (r = 0.15) but significant positive correlation in MS patients (r = 0.49, P = 0.01)
