MeasureTime frameDescription
Change From Baseline Visual Acuity (VA) at the Final VisitBaseline, Week 102 or Early Termination (ET)VA measured using Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS), Snellen chart, or other methods verifying if the participant was able to count fingers, perceive hand motion, or light. VA expressed as the logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR), and could range from 0 (representing 20/20 vision) to 1. Change: VA Score at Visit X minus VA Score at Baseline, where a negative change in the logMAR scale represents an improvement in VA.
