Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Patients With No Visible Implants in the Study Eye

    Time frame: Month 36

    Implants administered during the parent study are evaluated during this study to determine if they have completely degraded. The time frame is evaluated from the point of the first treatment in the parent study.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Number of Patients With Vision Loss in the Study Eye

    Time frame: Baseline of Parent Study, Month 36

    Vision loss is assessed by 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). The lower the number of letters read correctly on the eye chart, the worse the vision (or visual acuity). Severe vision loss is a ≥30 letter decrease in BCVA. Moderate vision loss is a ≥15 and <30 letter decrease in BCVA. No or mild vision loss is <15 letter decrease in BCVA. Baseline of the parent study is defined as the point of the first study treatment.
