  1. * P < 0.05; † P < 0.01; ‡ P < 0.001; §P < 0.1. NEI-VFQ and SF-36 scores were partially correlated with demographic and lesion variables, type of VFD and visual acuity.
  2. 1 The etiology was either ischemic (139) or hemorrhagic (38).
  3. 2 The type of VFD was complete hemianopia (34), incomplete hemianopia (72), quadrantanopia (31), tunnel vision (5), scotoma (3), diffuse loss of vision (23) and visual field defect affecting three quadrants (9).
