Notes: Data were subgrouped into those patients exhibiting a cup-to-disc ratio disparity ≥0.10, 0.15, 0.20, and 0.25. Agreement between the reported preferred side of eye dependency during sleep and the optic nerve with the larger cup-to-disc ratio was calculated for each subgroup. For patients observed to have at least a 0.10 cup-to-disc ratio asymmetry, there was a 78% agreement (71+36/total).
