Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Visual acuity [Baseline and up to one year after injection.]
Changes noted in vision after injection measured 8n logMar units by snellen chart.
Secondary Outcome Measures

Changes noted in central macular thickness after injection measured by optical coherence tomography in microns.
Other Outcome Measures
- Intraocular pressure [Baseline and up to one year after injection.]
Changes noted in intraocular pressure after injection measured by applanation tonometry in millimeter mercury.
