Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- CVI at baseline [CVI was assessed at baseline(within 1 week before surgery)]
choroidal vascularity index(CVI) was defined as the proportion of vascular area to total circumscribed area.
- CVI at 1 week postoperatively [CVI was assessed 1 week after surgery.]
choroidal vascularity index (CVI) was defined as the proportion of vascular area to total circumscribed area.
- CVI at 1 month postoperatively [CVI was assessed 1 month after surgery.]
choroidal vascularity index (CVI) was defined as the proportion of vascular area to total circumscribed area.
- CVI at 3 months postoperatively [CVI was assessed 3 months after surgery.]
choroidal vascularity index (CVI)was defined as the proportion of vascular area to total circumscribed area.
- CT at baseline [CT was assessed at baseline and 1 week, 1 month, 3 month after surgery.]
Choroid thickness (CT) was the thickness of the choroidal layer; CT values were obtained with the built-in software of the SS-OCT device.
- CT at 1 week postoperatively [CT was assessed at 1 week after surgery.]
Choroid thickness (CT) was the thickness of the choroidal layer; CT values were obtained with the built-in software of the SS-OCT device.
- CT at 1 month postoperatively [CT was assessed at 1 month after surgery.]
Choroid thickness (CT) was the thickness of the choroidal layer; CT values were obtained with the built-in software of the SS-OCT device.
- CT at 3 months postoperatively [CT was assessed at 3 months after surgery.]
Choroid thickness (CT) was the thickness of the choroidal layer, CT values were obtained with the built-in software of the SS-OCT device.
- VD at baseline [VD of the choriocapillaris was assessed at baseline.]
VD of the choriocapillaris was the vessel density of the choriocapillaris in the choroid.
- VD at 1 week postoperatively [VD of the choriocapillaris was assessed 1 week after surgery.]
VD of the choriocapillaris was the vessel density of the choriocapillaris in the choroid.
- VD at 1 month postoperatively [VD of the choriocapillaris was assessed 1 month after surgery.]
VD of the choriocapillaris was the vessel density of the choriocapillaris in the choroid.
- VD at 3 months postoperatively [VD of the choriocapillaris was assessed 3 months after surgery.]
VD of the choriocapillaris was the vessel density of the choriocapillaris in the choroid
Secondary Outcome Measures
- IOP at baseline [IOP was assessed at baseline and 1 week, 1 month, 3 month after surgery.]
IOP was the value of intraocular pressure.
- IOP at 1 week postoperatively [IOP was assessed 1 week after surgery.]
IOP was the value of intraocular pressure .
- IOP at 1 month postoperatively [IOP was assessed 1 month after surgery.]
IOP was the value of intraocular pressure.
- IOP at 3 months postoperatively [IOP was assessed 3 months after surgery.]
IOP was the value of intraocular pressure .
- BCVA at baseline [BCVA was assessed at baseline .]
BCVA was the best corrected visual acuity.
- BCVA at 3 months postoperatively [BCVA was assessed 3 months after surgery.]
BCVA was the best corrected visual acuity.
