Table 4:
Cluster descriptive statistics of AMD subphenotypes. We group patients into 3 subphenotypes based on their fundus images and sociodemographics up to intermediate AMD stage. Progression time denote the average number of years for patients with AMD to progress from earlier steps (i.e., step 1 and step 4) to later steps (i.e., step 4 and step 9).

Late AMD rate (%) | <1% | 10% | 57% |
Enroll age | 67.9 ± 4.4 | 69.5 ± 4.8 | 70.3 ± 5.3 |
Male(%)/Female(%) | 42%/58% | 39%/61% | 45%/55% |
Smoking history | 46% | 49% | 57% |
Depigmentation (%) | 9% | 31% | 38% |
