Abstract
Beyond vision, light triggers a variety of non-image forming responses. Amongst these is the pupillary light reflex, commonly used by ophthalmologists to gauge the function of the optic nerve head. In my talk, I will share some of our latest work on optimizing the use of the pupillary light reflex to detect functional loss in ocular diseases in clinics.
