Summary
The paper presents a proof of concept for a one-minute pupillary test that can quickly assess the functional health of the anterior afferent visual pathways, distinguishing patients with retinal and optic nerve diseases from healthy participants with high sensitivity and specificity.
Categories
Eye health: The paper presents a new method for assessing the functional health of the anterior afferent visual pathways, which can help in diagnosing and treating chronic ophthalmic diseases.
Cognitive function and memory: The paper discusses how the pupillary test can be affected by fluctuations of attention, eye-movements, fatigue, or stress, which are related to cognitive function.
