The thickness and birefringence of the pRNFL measured using PS-OCT. The thickness of the pRNFL in the inferior quadrant as well as the average thickness was thinner in MS patients compared with normal controls (a, P < 0.05). In addition, the PS-OCT derived PR/UD (proportional to birefringence) of the pRNFL was lower in all quadrants except for the nasal quadrant as well as the circular averaged PR/UD in patients with MS compared to age- and gender-matched normal controls (b, P < 0.05). *P < 0.05
