From: Visual and anatomical outcomes associated with treat-and-extend administration of intravitreal aflibercept for neovascular age-related macular degeneration

Baseline BCVA, mean  ±  SD

0.92  ±  0.50 logMAR (39.0  ±  24.8 ETDRS letters)

Post-treatment BCVA, mean  ±  SD

 At 6 months

0.74  ±  0.51 logMAR (47.9  ±  25.3 ETDRS letters)

 At 12 months

0.71  ±  0.50 logMAR (49.3  ±  24.9 ETDRS letters)

Mean change in BCVA, mean  ±  SD

 At 6 months

− 0.17  ±  0.40 logMAR (+ 8.7  ±  20.2 ETDRS letters)

 At 12 months

− 0.20  ±  0.40 logMAR (+ 10.1  ±  20.1 ETDRS letters)

Eyes gaining  ≥  0.3 logMAR units (15 ETDRS letters,  ~  3 Snellen lines), n (%)

 At 6 months

67 (31%)

 At 12 months

72 (34%)

Eyes with  ≤  0.3 logMAR vision (≥  70 ETDRS letters,  ~  Snellen VA  ≥  20/40), n (%)

 At 6 months

39 (18%)

 At 12 months

47 (22%)
