  • RCRS = research clinic reference standard observation; RCRS1 = research clinic reference standard first observation; RCRS2 = research clinic reference standard second observation; RCRSM = mean research clinic reference standard observation; HES = hospital eye service assessment; CO = community optometric assessment; CO1 = community optometric first assessment (where repeated assessments made); COM = mean community optometric assessment; R = right eye; L = left eye; SD = standard deviation of paired differences; CI = confidence interval (for the mean); TL = tolerance limit for change; ICC = intraclass correlation coefficient.
