  2. aRNFL clock-hour sectors most often below normal limits (in rank order, bracketed sectors have equivalent rankings)
  3. bClassification for each subject based on whichever of their eyes has the lowest HFA MD value; Mild: both eyes MD ≥ -6 dB; Moderate, worst eye MD < -6 dB but ≥ -12 dB; Severe, worst eye MD < -12 dB
