BCVA best-corrected visual acuity, IS/OS photoreceptor inner segment and outer segment, logMAR logarithm of minimal angle of resolution, RS retinal sensitivity. *Student paired t-test; p value represents the difference between after and before surgery. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant
