Objective characterization of the relative afferent pupillary defect in MS

To develop an objective and precise neurophysiologic method from which to identify and characterize the presence and magnitude of relative afferent pupillary defects (RAPD) in patients with MS. Binocular infrared pupillometry was performed in 40 control subjects and 32 MS patients with RAPDs, using...
