Standard deviations are shown in parentheses. CFPT and macular volume measurements before and at three post-treatment time points. The absolute minimums of central foveal point thickness and macular volume measurements were similar (p = 0.75 and p = 0.30, respectively), but the time required to achieve these minimums was different. All p values represent one-sided Student t tests assuming unequal variance compared with pretreatment measurements.
†p Values when compared with pretreatment levels.
‡p Values when compared against the minimum value achieved by the other treatment.
