Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. 1. Explore the Interrater Reliability of Pupillary Assessments When Conducted in the Natural Setting by a Diverse Group of Practitioners [ Time Frame: 9 months of pupillary assessments ]
    Two human assessors conducted and recorded the results of a clinical pupillary assessment on one patient within 5 minutes of one another. The researcher then conducted and recorded pupillary information on the same patient (within the same 5 minute window) using the NeurOptics Pupillometer.
