BCVA was measured with a standard Snellen chart and converted to the logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) units. BCVA indicates best-corrected visual acuity; CMT, central macular thickness; SD, standard deviation; TMV, total macular volume. Repeated measure ANOVA. Other than BCVA values from baseline to the 6th month of treatment, CMT values from baseline to the 12th month of the treatment, and TMV values from baseline to the 12th month and from baseline to the 24th month of the treatment, pairwise comparisons for BCVA, CMT, and TMV values were not significant in the nonvitrectomized group.
