Appropriate statistical methods to account for similarities in binary outcomes between fellow eyes.

Joanne Katz; Scott L. Zeger; Kung‐Yee Liang

The estimates and interpretation of the association between an ocular outcome and risk factors can differ significantly between these two approaches. The choice of model depends on the scientific questions of interest rather than on statistical considerations. Computer programs are available for implementing both models.
