Dear Editor

I ask you the kindness of correcting a mistake in my article that was published in the last number of the Arquivos Brasileiros de Oftalmologia. 2011;74(3):181-182

In the tables 1 and 2 (pages 181 and 182), in the bottom lines, there are the values of p. Please correct:

Table 1: p=1.6 to p=0.000000016; p=1.36 to p=0.000136; p=1.46 to p=0.00000146

Table 2: p=1.32 to p= 0.0000132; p=1.37 to p=0.000137; p=1.44 to p=0.00044

Thank you.
