Pupillary light reflex as a diagnostic aid from computational viewpoint: A systematic literature review

This work presents a detailed and complete review of publications on pupillary light reflex (PLR) used to aid diagnoses. These are computational techniques used in the evaluation of pupillometry, as well as their application in computer-aided diagnoses (CAD) of pathologies or physiological conditions that can be studied by observing the movements of miosis and mydriasis of the human pupil. A careful survey was carried out of all studies published over the last 10 years which investigated, electronic devices, recording protocols, image treatment, computational algorithms and the pathologies related to PLR. We present the frontier of existing knowledge regarding methods and techniques used in this field of knowledge, which has been expanding due to the possibility of performing diagnoses with high precision, at a low cost and with a non-invasive method.
