Mean IOP of all N = 3 to 9 baseline measurements under ketamine/xylazine anesthesia

$

Optic disc dimension as determined by the clinical visible optic disc margin which is Neural Canal Opening in these monkey eyes at the perfusion pressure

&

Vertical length as determined by the major length of the NCO ellipse

*

Horizontal length as determined by the minor length of the NCO ellipse

!

Disc Area is determined by the area of the NCO ellipse
