Patient specific spatio-temporal distances between the first registered light sensation and the bony structure orbital roof are shown. The interval between the beginning of the radiation and the first VSs ranges from 12 s (5.4 mm) to 301 s (81,3 mm). The distance between the first VSs and the orbital roof ranged from 33,4 s (15 mm) to 201,2 s (56,1 mm). All measured distances of the first beam inducing a VSs are more than ½ beam width away from the orbital roof.
