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 ...

A new study shows that infants who are later diagnosed with autism react more strongly to sudden changes in light. This finding provides support for the view that sensory processing plays an important ...

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, ...

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 eye’s light-sensing retina taps different circuits depending on whether it is generating image-forming vision or carrying out a non-vision function such as regulating pupil size or sleep/wake ...

Pupillometry, the precise measurement of pupil size and dynamics, has emerged as a valuable tool in evaluating both autonomic nervous system integrity and central neural function. In particular, ...

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 ...

The creation of a bionic eye that mimics the widening and shrinking of the pupil may bring us one step closer towards helping people with certain visual impairments. Light enters the eye via the pupil ...
