Development of visual acuity with respect to diagnosis subgroups
| Diagnosis | Preoperative visual acuity: (mean: logMAR) | 3 months postoperative visual acuity: (mean: logMAR) | 12 months postoperative visual acuity: (mean: logMAR) | 24 months postoperative visual acuity: (mean: logMAR) | 48–60 months postoperative visual acuity: (mean: logMAR) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| nLP = no light perception; LP d = defective light projection; LP i = intact light projection; HM = hand movements; CF = counting fingers. | |||||
