Double blinded
Blinding description
606 / 5,000 Translation results In the present study, patients and the treatment team (physicians) had no knowledge that each patient was in the treatment group or placebo group. Patients will be divided into two groups of treatment or placebo based on randomization after their disease is diagnosed. Then, without knowing which group each patient is in, the researcher will enter the patient in the study and the relevant treatment will be started and will be visited for follow-up in the future. Patients also do not know which group they belong to until the end of the study period. After the person is diagnosed with the disease by an ophthalmologist, participants are referred to a secretary for medication or a placebo.
