Left side of Table 1 shows number and percentage of eyes that reached a POAG endpoint after documentation of 0, 1, 2, 3, or for optic disc hemorrhages. The right side of the table shows the number of optic disc hemorrhages documented after the development of a POAG endpoint in eyes who had 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 hemorrhages before a POAG endpoint.
