 To view {ccr} metrics, click **CCR**. For each follower index on the cluster, it 
-shows information such as the leader index, an indication of how much the
-follower index is lagging behind the leader index, the last fetch time, the
-number of operations synced, and error messages. If you select a follower index,
-you can view the same information for each shard.
+shows the following information:
+
+- **Index**: The name of the follower index.
+- **Follows**: The name of the leader index.
+- **Alerts**: Any read exceptions that have been triggered for the index or its 
+shards.
+- **Sync Lag (ops)**: How many operations the follower index is lagging behind the 
+leader index. 
++
+This is calculated by finding the difference between the minimum and maximum operation 
+sequence number on the leader (`leader_max_seq_no`) and the difference between the minimum 
+and maximum global sequence number checkpoint on the follower (`follower_global_checkpoint`) 
+for each shard over the selected time period. The difference in `follower_global_checkpoint` 
+is subtracted from the difference in `leader_max_seq_no` for each shard, and the highest result 
+across all shards is displayed.
+- **Last fetch time**: The time elapsed since the last successful fetch from the leader index. 
+Represents the longest time elapsed across all of the shards in the follower index.
+- **Ops synced**: The number of operations indexed (replicated) into the follower index from 
+the leader index in the selected time period. 
++
+This metric is a sum of the number of operations indexed across all shards over the selected 
+time period.
+- **Error**: Any exceptions returned for the most recent document in the selected time period.
