Item Pupillary behavior in relation to wavelength and age(Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014) Lobato Rincón, Luis-Lucio; Cabanillas Campos, María del Carmen; Bonnin Arias, Cristina Natalia; Chamorro Gutiérrez, Eva; Sánchez Ramos, Celia; Murciano Cespedosa, AntonioPupil light reflex can be used as a non-invasive ocular predictor of cephalic autonomic nervous system integrity. Spectral sensitivity of the pupil's response to light has, for some time, been an interesting issue. It has generally, however, only been investigated with the use of white light and studies with monochromatic wavelengths are scarce. This study investigates the effects of wavelength and age within three parameters of the pupil light reflex (amplitude of response, latency, and velocity of constriction) in a large sample of younger and older adults (N = 97), in mesopic conditions. Subjects were exposed to a single light stimulus at four different wavelengths: white (5600° K), blue (450 nm), green (510 nm), and red (600 nm). Data was analyzed appropriately, and, when applicable, using the General Linear Model (GLM), Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD), Student's t-test and/or ANCOVA. Across all subjects, pupillary response to light had the greatest amplitude and shortest latency in white and green light conditions. In regards to age, older subjects (46-78 years) showed an increased latency in white light and decreased velocity of constriction in green light compared to younger subjects (18-45 years old). This study provides data patterns on parameters of wavelength-dependent pupil reflexes to light in adults and it contributes to the large body of pupillometric research. It is hoped that this study will add to the overall evaluation of cephalic autonomic nervous system integrity.Item Mesopic pupillary reflex in patients treated with fluoxetine(Actas Españolas de Psiquiatría, 2020) Rodríguez Alonso, Xabier; Gutiérrez Jorrín, Sara Carmen; Bonnin Arias, Cristina Natalia; Rubio Corgo, Sandra; Arregui Olaizola, Carlota; Quezada Sánchez, Johnny; López-Ibor Alcocer, María Inés; Sánchez Ramos, CeliaIntroduction: currently the treatment of mental illness by antidepressants is very frequent. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors are the most prescribed antidepressants worldwide and have been associated with alterations in accommodation or pupil. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of fluoxetine on the pupillary reflex and the accommodation in young population. Methodology: The study group included seven patients diagnosed with depression and treated with fluoxetine; 22 subjects were included as a control group. The pupillary reflexes and the accommodative state were evaluated using the Power Refractor II pupilometer. Five phases of 3 seconds each were measured. In phase 2 there was a glare with a white light. Results: For the pupil diameter, maximum and minimum values were obtained in the group of patients treated with fluoxetine than in the control in all the measurement phases. For the control group, a maximum pupillary contraction is observed in the glare phase, however, in the study group it is observed in the phase after glare. As for the accommodation, there are no significant differences between the two groups. Conclusions: In patients treated with fluoxetine there are pupillary alterations like a bigger pupillary diameters and slower pupillary contraction. The lack of conclusive results in terms of accommodation does not mean that there are no changes related to it, whose detection requires future studies with different methodologies and with a larger sample size.
