Retinal nerve fibre layer assessment in myopic glaucomatous eyes: comparison of GDx variable corneal compensation with GDx enhanced corneal compensation [PDF]
British Journal of Ophthalmology, 2008 To compare the results of scanning laser polarimetry (GDx) with variable corneal compensation (VCC) and enhanced corneal compensation (ECC) when applied to myopic glaucomatous eyes.Forty glaucoma eyes with moderate myopia (between -3 and -6 D) and 35 glaucoma eyes with high myopia (-8 D or greater) were enrolled in this study.

Accuracy of GDx variable corneal compensation polarization measurements in normal human eyes: effect of accommodation, cycloplegia, focus, pupil size, and eye selection on reproducibility [PDF]
Eye, 2005 To evaluate the reproducibility of variable corneal compensation (VCC) and the effect of accommodation, cycloplegia, eye selection, focus, and pupil size on this measurement of polarization.Using a GDx scanning laser polarimeter, multiple measurements of the VCC were obtained from each eye of 33 healthy, young adults under differing conditions.
