  1. Continues numbers presented as mean ± standard deviation
  2. ONSD: Optic nerve sheath diameter, T0: After induction of general anesthesia, T1: After endotracheal intubation, T2: After the mouth gag placement, T3: 20 min after the mouth gag placement
  3. *p value was adjusted for multiple comparisons with Bonferroni test, CI: confidence interval
