Title Characterization of Reflex Tearing Induced by Light Stimuli in Relation to the Post-illumination Pupil Response
Creator Shaobo Lei
Subject Pupils Retina
Description We hypothesize that light-induced tearing, a protective reflex associated with photophobia, is melanopsin-driven. This study tests this hypothesis by investigating whether light-induced tearing is more sensitive to blue light than red light and whether light-induced tear production is positively correlated with the melanopsin-driven post illumination pupil response (PIPR).
