  1. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Bonferroni post hoc test (age, BCVA) and χ2 test (gender) were performed.
  2. Values are presented as the mean ± standard deviation.
  3. AMD age-related macular degeneration, PCV polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy, BCVA best-corrected visual acuity, logMAR logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution, IOP intraocular pressure.
