Quantitative analysis of visual functional outcomes and effect sizes
| Outcome Measure | No. of Patients | Pre-op | Post-op | Effect Size (95% CI) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BCVA | 6 | 1.91 (0.95, 2.45) | 0.30 (0.14, 2.45) | 0.80 (-0.11, 1.66) |
| VFI (%) | 4 | 11 (2, 36) | 91 (32, 100) | 1.37 (0.00, 2.69) |
| MD (dB) | 4 | -28.02 (-30.81, -20.27) | -3.33 (-22.21, 0.58) | 1.23 (-0.07, 2.46) |
VFI, visual field index. MD, mean deviation. Effect sizes (Hedges’ g) and corresponding 95% CIs were calculated from paired observations to quantify the magnitude of clinical change, with g ≥ 0.8 interpreted as a large effect. Visual field parameters (VFI and MD) were assessed in a subset of 4 patients capable of completing the examination
