Objectively Diagnose and Monitor Treatment of Light Sensitivity

Healthy Control subjects:

Inclusion Criteria

* Healthy individuals with normal eye exam in the previous year
* Age 18-80

Exclusion Criteria

* History of eye or systemic disorder that affect the retina, optic nerve, visual pathway, or pupil defect: including glaucoma, optic neuropathy, or retinal disease, diabetes and/or hypertension that are not well controlled, history of head trauma, concussion, or TBI, history of cervical or spinal injury/surgery
* Medications or eyedrops that would confound measuring the pupil light reflex and EMG: including topical autonomic drugs that could influence pupil size, ocular pharmacologic agents, sedative agents (e.g. benzodiazepines or barbiturates), opioid narcotics
* Must not be light sensitive or get migraine headaches

TBI patients without photosensitivity or headache:

Inclusion Criteria

* Age 18-80
* Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)

Exclusion Criteria

* History of eye or systemic disorder that affect the retina, optic nerve, visual pathway, or pupil defect: including glaucoma, optic neuropathy, or retinal disease, diabetes and/or hypertension that are not well controlled
* Medications or eyedrops that would confound measuring the pupil light reflex and EMG: including topical autonomic drugs that could influence pupil size, ocular pharmacologic agents, sedative agents (e.g. benzodiazepines or barbiturates), opioid narcotics - Must not be light sensitive or get migraine headaches (use headache criteria from Ana if we are including headaches)

Patients with photosensitivity from non-TBI causes Inclusion Criteria

* Age 18-80
* Photosensitivity: determined by patient reporting symptoms and there may or may not be an identified cause associated with their light sensitivity (i.e. history of uveitis, childhood exotropia, meningitis, radiation, tumor)

Exclusion Criteria

* History of eye or systemic disorder that affect the retina, optic nerve, visual pathway, or pupil defect: including glaucoma, optic neuropathy, or retinal disease, diabetes and/or hypertension that are not well controlled, history of head trauma, concussion, or TBI, history of cervical or spinal injury/surgery
* Medications or eyedrops that would confound measuring the pupil light reflex and EMG: including topical autonomic drugs that could influence pupil size, ocular pharmacologic agents, sedative agents (e.g. benzodiazepines or barbiturates), opioid narcotics

TBI patients with photosensitivity Inclusion Criteria

* Age 18-80
* Photosensitivity: determined by patient reporting symptoms and cause associated with their light sensitivity is post TBI
* TBI

Exclusion Criteria

\- History of eye or systemic disorder that affect the retina, optic nerve, visual pathway, or pupil defect: including glaucoma, optic neuropathy, or retinal disease, diabetes and/or hypertension that are not well controlled
