CI = confidence interval.
Adjusted by baseline predictors of visual acuity, including age, visual acuity, macular neovascularization area, macular neovascularization lesion type, study eye macular atrophy, total foveal thickness, retinal pigment epithelium elevation, drug, and subretinal fluid.
All 4 fluid status variables were considered simultaneously in a model of visual acuity.
