A new study showed that NeurOptics Pupillometers reliably measure the presence and quality of the pupillary light reflex after cardiac arrest and during resuscitation, producing readings that ...
An abnormal pupillary light reflex (PLR) is commonly detected in patients with glaucoma, and these differences can be used to distinguish glaucomatous eyes from unaffected eyes, according to the ...
Pupil size in response to light could serve as a biomarker for concussion, according to a study published in Life. “A concussive injury to the brain is associated with changes in the PLR [pupillary ...
The keen practitioner can gain helpful information simply by assessing pupillary responses. The pupils will offer substantial insight into one’s ocular health and the state of the visual pathways ...
University of Tokyo researchers have found that the light reflex of the pupil is modulated by light stimulation inside the blind spot in normal human observers, even though that light is not perceived ...
Researchers are reporting progress in understanding whether a second light-sensing pathway in mammals indeed contributes to the detection of ambient light for controlling body functions. January 10, ...
Measuring how the eyes' pupils change in response to light—known as the pupillary light reflex—could potentially be used to screen for autism in young children, according to a study conducted at ...
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Capturing objective data in about five seconds that can aid concussion diagnoses through an iPhone, the Reflex PLR Analyzer, an industry-disruptive diagnostic tool for traumatic ...
May 28, 2010 (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) — In an effort to find discrete phenotypic features that are consistently present in autistic populations, researchers at the University of Missouri Thompson ...
The human retina contains some 100 million photoreceptor cells. When these are stimulated with light, they communicate that information to the brain and we perceive light. Researchers have now ...
