  • Data are presented as mean±SD or ratios of numbers.

  • *Statistical significance, p<0.05.

  • †P values were calculated using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test.

  • BCVA, best-corrected visual acuity; ERM, epiretinal membrane; ETDRS, Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study; FAZ, foveal avascular zone; LogMAR, the logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution; M-CHARTS, metamorphopsia test.
