Development of a Smartphone-Based System for Intrinsically Photosensitive Retinal Ganglion Cells Targeted Chromatic Pupillometry

Abstract

Chromatic Pupillometry, used to assess Pupil Light Reflex (PLR) to a coloured light stimulus, has regained interest since the discovery of melanopsin in the intrinsically photosensitive Retinal Ganglion Cells (ipRGCs). This technique has shown the potential to be used as a screening tool for neuro-ophthalmological diseases; however, most of the pupillometers available are expensive and not portable, making it harder for them to be used as a widespread screening tool. In this study, we developed a smartphone-based system for chromatic pupillometry that allows targeted stimulation of the ipRGCs. Using a smartphone, this system is portable and accessible and takes advantage of the location of the ipRGCs in the perifovea. The system incorporates a 3D-printed support for the smartphone and an illumination system. Preliminary tests were carried out on a single individual and then validated on eleven healthy individuals with two different LED intensities. The average Post-Illumination Pupil Light Response 6 s after the stimuli offsets (PIPR-6s) showed a difference between the blue and the red stimuli of 9.5% for both intensities, which aligns with the studies using full-field stimulators. The results validated this system for a targeted stimulation of the ipRGCs for chromatic pupillometry, with the potential to be a portable and accessible screening tool for neuro-ophthalmological diseases.
