The present invention generally relates to apparatus, software and methods for assessing ocular, ophthalmic, neurological, physiological, psychological and/or behavioral conditions. As disclosed herein, the conditions are assessed using eye-tracking technology that beneficially eliminates the need for a subject to fixate and maintain focus during testing or to produce a secondary (non-optical) physical movement or audible response, i.e., feedback. The subject is only required to look at a series of individual visual stimuli, which is generally an involuntary reaction. The reduced need for cognitive and/or physical involvement of a subject allows the present modalities to achieve greater accuracy, due to reduced human error, and to be used with a wide variety of subjects, including small children, patients with physical disabilities or injuries, patients with diminished mental capacity, elderly patients, animals, etc.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium for assessing at least one of an ocular, ophthalmic, neurological, physiological, psychological or behavioral condition comprising instructions stored on the computer-readable medium that when executed on a processor cause the processor to:
A method of assessing at least one of an ocular, ophthalmic, neurological, physiological, psychological or behavioral condition of a subject using a computing device programmed to execute a plurality of programmatic instructions, comprising:
An apparatus for assessing at least one of an ocular, ophthalmic, neurological, physiological, psychological or behavioral condition comprising:
