  1. CNV, choroidal neovascularization; MCV, microaneurysmal choroidal vasculopathy; PCV, polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy; RAP, retinal angiomatous proliferation; SD, standard deviation; VEGF, vascular endothelial growth factor; BCVA, best-corrected visual acuity; CST, central subfield thickness.
  2. Continuous variables are reported as mean ± standard deviation values. All other data are n (%).
