Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Leaking Phenotype

Retinal thickness (RT) increase (increase in RT above normal range as measured by OCT, considering the macular thickness normative data) in the central subfield, the inner ring and/or the outer ring.

No interventions assigned to this group

Ischemic Phenotype

Neovascular disease activity as shown by microaneurysms (MA) turnover (MA formation rate \>= 2, i.e. number of new MA per year) computed from CFP using the RetmarkerDR software.

No interventions assigned to this group
