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
