Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Relationship of Corneal Biomechanics Measured by Corvis ST and Optic Nerve Head Parameters in Healthy Saudi Females
Introduction The evaluation of corneal biomechanical properties has important implications for the diagnosis and management of glaucoma.1 It is essential to determine the risk factors
Article Description
We previously reported that a shallow circumpapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (cpRNFL) peak angle as measured by optical coherence tomography (OCT) suggests the temporal retina is stretched around the optic disc from the papillo-macular bundle (Yamashita T et al. Investigative Ophthalmol Vis Sci 2013). The purpose of the current study was to investigate the relationship between CorvisST tonometry (CST) corneal measurements, axial length (AL) and the change in OCT-measured cpRNFL peak angle, in young healthy subjects. OCT and CST measurements were carried out in 97 eyes of 97 young healthy volunteers. The relationship between cpRNFL peak angle and 12 CST parameters, adjusted for AL, was investigated using linear modelling. The mean ± standard deviation cpRNFL peak angle of the 97 healthy volunteers was 130.6 ± 25.4 (range: 77.8 to 207.0) degrees. The optimal linear model to explain cpRNFL peak angle (chosen from 2 different models) included three CST variables related to the speed and size of energy absorption (namely, A1 time, A1 length and A2 time), in addition to AL. In eyes with longer AL and shorter energy absorption in CST measurement, temporal retina is stretched around the optic disc from the papillo-macular bundle, as suggested by a shallow cpRNFL peak angle.
