ACV, Average constriction velocity; ADV, Average dilation velocity; MCV, Maximal constriction velocity; T75, Total time from the peak of constriction to the recovery of the pupil to 75% of maximal pupil diameter; Δ, baseline value minus post-pilocarpine test value.

Data are mean ± standard deviation (min, max) unless otherwise indicated. P values in boldface indicate statistical significance.
