Multivariable logistic regression analyses adjusted for age, gender, CRT, and GLD at the time of initial IVA. Serous PED > 2 DD and fibrovascular PED > 3 DD were included. *p < 0.05.

BCVA, best corrected visual acuity; CCT, central choroidal thickness; AMD, age-related macular degeneration; PCV, polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy; CNV, choroidal neovascularization; PED, pigment epithelial detachment; CRT, central retinal thickness; GLD, greatest linear dimension.
