Treatment: Other - VEGF Trap-Eye (BAY86-5321)
Treatment: Other - VEGF Trap-Eye (BAY86-5321)
Treatment: Surgery - Macular Laser Photocoagulation (Control)

Experimental: Intravitreal Aflibercept Injection 2Q4 - Participants received 2mg Intravitreal aflibercept injection (IAI) (EYLEA, VEGF Trap-Eye, BAY86-5321) every 4 weeks (2Q4).

Experimental: Intravitreal Aflibercept Injection 2Q8 - Participants received 2mg Intravitreal aflibercept injection (IAI) (EYLEA, VEGF Trap-Eye, BAY86-5321) every 4 weeks for 5 visits followed by injections every 8 weeks (2Q8).

Active comparator: Macular Laser Photocoagulation (Control) - Participants received laser treatment at baseline and as needed at visits at which laser retreatment criteria were met, but no more frequently than every 12 weeks.
