Analysis of Ciliary Cleft Parameters. A. Ciliary Cleft Width (CCW) comparison between dogs and cats shows that the mean CCW in dogs was 0.6357 ± 0.2544 mm, ranging from 0.3800 to 1.450 mm, whereas in cats, the mean CCW was 1.227 ± 0.2369 mm, with a range from 0.8400 to 1.870 mm. B. The Ciliary Cleft Length (CCL) comparison reveals that in dogs, the mean CCL was 1.259 ± 0.2662 mm, with values ranging from 0.9400 to 2.050 mm, while in cats, the mean CCL was 2.039 ± 0.2518 mm, ranging from 1.660 to 2.480 mm. C. The Ciliary Cleft Area (CCA) comparison shows that the mean CCA in dogs was 0.3343 ± 0.09171 mm², ranging from 0.2200 to 0.5300 mm², whereas in cats, the mean CCA was significantly larger, at 1.149 ± 0.2388 mm², with a range from 0.7300 to 1.540 mm². For ease of interpretation of our results, statistical significance is indicated as follows: not significant (ns), p < 0.05 (*), p < 0.01 (**), p < 0.001 (***), and p < 0.0001 (****)
