BCVA: best-corrected visual acuity; CMT: central macular thickness; FAF: fundus autofluorescence; EZ: Ellipsoid Zone; LogMAR: logarithm of the minimal angle of resolution; n: number of eyes; OCT: optical coherence tomography; RPE: retinal pigment epithelium; P (1) statistical significance of change between baseline and last visit; P (2) statistical significance of correlation with BCVA at baseline; P (3) statistical significance of correlation with BCVA at last follow up visit.
