Researchers at the University of California, San Diego, have developed a smartphone app that could allow people to screen for Alzheimer’s disease, ADHD and other neurological diseases and disorders — ...
Neurological conditions can be devastating. Conditions like Alzheimer’s (which is becoming increasingly common as the general population starts to get older) can significantly affect cognition, memory ...
The app tracks minute changes in a person’s pupil size, which previous research has shown can indicate pre-clinical neurological disease. In 2019 a team of researchers from UC San Diego demonstrated ...
PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — A new study published by researchers at Washington State University suggests testing how the eyes’ pupils change in response to light could potentially be used to screen for ...
A new smartphone attachment could enable people to screen for a variety of neurological conditions, such as Alzheimer's disease and traumatic brain injury, at low cost -- and do so accurately ...
New research points to an easily measured eye response to light as a potentially useful way of diagnosing autism in very young children. Further testing is currently underway in a large cohort of ...
Medically reviewed by Johnstone M. Kim, MD Key Takeaways The pupil controls how much light enters the eye, allowing for clear ...
Our eyes do more than just help us see the world—they can also reveal critical insights into our psychological state. Changes in pupil size, shape, and reactivity can sometimes signal underlying ...
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 ...
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 new study.
This attachment fits over a smartphone's camera to capture clear video of pupil size changes, which can offer clues about an individual's neurological functions. The device helps the camera see the ...
