The differences between subgroups are not significant; values close to significant are given in parentheses (a Fisher's exact test) POAG – primary open-angle glaucoma; SD – standard deviation; IQR – interquartile range; SLT – selective laser trabeculoplasty; NPDS – nonpenetrating deep sclerectomy with or without deferred Nd:YAG goniopuncture
