Rank importance of related variables was identified according to significance levels, as calculated with the Random Forest machine-learning algorithm.

VRQoL, vision-related quality of life.

aBCVA in better eye, best-corrected visual acuity in log MAR in better-VA eye.

bBCVA in worse eye, best-corrected visual acuity in log MAR in worse-VA eye.

cIVF 10-2, binocular integrated visual field (IVF) of Humphrey central 10-2 test program.

dIVF 24-2, binocular integrated visual field (IVF) of Humphrey central 24-2 test program.

Outer (inner) lower right (left) indicates outer (inner) lower right (left) quadrant subfield of binocular integrated visual field of Humphrey central 10-2 test program.

The values in parentheses are significance levels calculated with the Random Forest machine-learning algorithm.
