TABLE III. Test-retest reproducibility of the manual delineation of the LC and sclera.

“Measurements” shows the mean ± standard deviation (SD) of measured scleral thickness, LC thickness, and anterior LC contour length obtained from 5 independent measurements using the scans of Pig B’s ONH at 6mmHg. The uncertainty arising from contour delineations translated into a relative uncertainty in strain estimation, here estimated by the ratio SD÷mean.

Additional potential imaging-related uncertainties are not included in this estimate. Delineations were always performed by the same author (BC).
