  1. Data: CAL calibration data obtained from 600 controlled measurements from 5 test subjects (12 measurements on both eyes for each target location), SBJ clinical data from 39 subjects (78 eyes)
  2. Stats: SNS Sensitivity = True Positive/(True Positive + False Negative) = TP/(TP + FN), SPC Specificity = True Negative/(True Negative + False Positive) = TN/(TN + FP)
