Change of mean flare values from baseline at 6 months Flare measurements occurred at baseline; after 15 days; and after 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 months of treatment [clinicaltrials_resource:6f9ccea609e465a9684346bb8a8c2c3b]

A flare measure of a laser flare meter (FM 500; Kowa Co Ltd, Tokyo, Japan) was used to determine the status of the blood-aqueous barrier at all follow-up visits. According to information provided by the manufacturer, flare readings greater than 26 photon counts per millisecond (p/ms) are indicative of a disruption in the blood-aqueous barrier.
