Trial Outcomes & Findings for Study of Ozurdex® Treatment Practice in Patients With Macular Oedema Due to Retinal Vein Occlusion (NCT NCT01618266)

NCT ID: NCT01618266

Last Updated: 2016-03-14

Results Overview

BCVA is measured in the study eye using an eye chart and is reported as the number of letters read correctly (ranging from 0 to 100 letters). The lower the number of letters read correctly on the eye chart, the worse the vision (or visual acuity). The higher the number of letters read correctly, the better the vision (or visual acuity). A positive number change in the number of letters read means that the vision improved and a negative number change in the number of letters read means that the vision has worsened.

Population: All enrolled patients with BRVO

BCVA is measured in the study eye using an eye chart and is reported as the number of letters read correctly (ranging from 0 to 100 letters). The lower the number of letters read correctly on the eye chart, the worse the vision (or visual acuity). The higher the number of letters read correctly, the better the vision (or visual acuity). A positive number change in the number of letters read means that the vision improved and a negative number change in the number of letters read means that the vision has worsened. BRVO is a blockage of the small veins in the retina.
