CST values usually were translated2 to an equivalent thickness based on a Stratus time domain OCT.

Treatment group comparisons are means from ANCOVA models adjusted for baseline visual acuity (continuous), baseline central subfield thickness (continuous), the three-way interaction of baseline visual acuity (categorical), baseline central subfield thickness (categorical) and treatment and all two-way interactions (categorical).

Baseline central subfield thickness data missing for 2 eyes in the aflibercept group, 2 eyes in the bevacizumab group and 3 eyes in the ranibizumab.

One-year central subfield thickness data missing for 1 eye in the aflibercept group, 1 eye in the bevacizumab group and 2 eyes in the ranibizumab.

One-year visit data unavailable for 16 eyes in the aflibercept group, 12 eyes in the bevacizumab group, and 12 eyes in the ranibizumab group.
