Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change From Baseline in Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) in the Study Eye

    BCVA is measured using an eye chart and is reported as the number of letters read correctly (ranging from 0 to 100 letters) in the study eye. The lower the number of letters read correctly on the eye chart, the worse the vision (or visual acuity). An increase (positive number change from baseline) in the number of letters read correctly means that vision has improved and a decrease (negative number change from baseline) in the number of letters read correctly means that vision has worsened.

    Baseline, Week 16

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Change From Baseline in BCVA in the Study Eye

    Baseline, Week 20

  • Percentage of Patients With a BCVA Gain of ≥15 Letters in the Study Eye on the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) Scale

    Baseline, 20 Weeks

  • Percentage of Patients With a BCVA Gain of ≥10 Letters in the Study Eye on the ETDRS Scale

    Baseline, 20 Weeks

  • Change From Baseline in Central Retinal Thickness (CRT) in the Study Eye

    Baseline, Week 16, Week 20
