The Mann–Whitney U test was used between groups. Within-group comparisons were done using Friedman’s test. Post hoc analysis was done using Bonferroni’s method, and different letters indicate a significant pair. BCVA, best-corrected visual acuity; SCTA, suprachoroidal triamcinolone acetonide; IVTA, intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide.
