PED pigment epithelial detachment, SRF subretinal fluid, IRF intraretinal fluid, NV neovascularization.
*P-value calculated by unpaired t-test.
^§Structurally normal areas referred to areas of the retina in AMD eyes with no apparent pathological lesions, i.e. excluding lesion areas and peri-lesional areas.
^åOdds ratio calculated as exponential of coefficients.
