Eleven patients were categorized (29.72%) as responders and 10 patients (27.02%) as nonresponders. Nonresponders showed poorer BCVA (P = 0.024, 0.045, and 0.048 for 4, 5, and 6 months) and higher CMT (P = 0.021, 0.0008 and 0.0001 for baseline, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 months) compared to responders. The cytokines IL-8, MCP-1 were significantly up regulated (P = 0.0048 and 0.029 for MCP-1 and IL-8) in nonresponders. Elevated MCP-1 and IL-8 levels found in the nonresponders could be used as a prognostic marker to identify these groups
