158μm thick cluster from the inferior RNFL region of the OD. Evolution of the polarimetric speckle noise corrupted normalized Stokes parameters (Q_n, U_n, and V_n) for the 3 incident polarization states (solid lines) and their noise-free fits (dotted lines) (a): S₀ = −120°, (b): S₁ = 0°, and (c): S₂ = 120°. (d) Polarimetric speckle corrupted arcs, S_m(z) and their noise-free fits, P_m(z) such that m = 0, 1, 2. All three states are fit to the same eigen-axis, $\widehat{\beta }$.
