2

Proportion of patients gaining or losing more than 15 letters on the ETDRS chart

The ETDRS chart has been introduced as a standardized visual acuity (VA) testing chart. It uses 14 lines of 5 Sloan letter optotypes in each line in logarithmic progression. The space between lines and letters is proportionally equal keeping the effect of contour interaction constant. The threshold VA corresponds to the line in which 3 out of 5 optotypes were correctly identified. Alternatively, a by-letter scoring system (-0.02 logMAR credited for each letter correctly read) can be used. The testing distance can be varied; the corresponding visual acuity can be read easily from the chart. The chart is mounted on a box that is backlit by fluorescent tubes. For repeated measurements, the chart itself can be exchanged, providing different letters for different eyes.

Time frame
Week 12, week 24, optionally week 36
3

Mean change of Central Subfield Thickness (CST) from baseline

CST is measured as one parameter by Optical coherence tomography.

Time frame
Baseline, week 12, week 24, optionally week 36
4

Mean change of Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) from baseline

BCVA is the best possible vision that an eye can achieve with the use of glasses or contact lenses. It is measured by ETDRS chart or equivalent with the use of glasses or contact lenses

Time frame
Baseline, week 12, week 24, optionally week 36
