  1. The table shows only the cases in which statistically significant associations between axial length and higher order aberrations were found for each group. HOAs higher order aberrations, PCC partial correlation coefficient, SA spherical aberration, CI confidence interval, DSM dome-shaped macula. Values in bold indicate significant (p ≤ 0.05) associations
