This study was a within subjects/crossover design in which each subject received the treatment and served as his/her own control. 100 subjects were recruited from the student/staff population of the university, were 18 y/o or older with no condition affecting pupillary activity. Pupillary activity was measured with a PLR100 pupillometer and included pupillary diameter, pupillary response latency, maximum constriction velocity and maximum redilation velocity. Subjects were adapted to a dim light environment, measures taken, treatment given at either third or fourth time period and measures retaken. The study was approved by the NSU IRB. Subject numbers were sufficient to have statistical power to find an effect. The study found an effect of treatment on maximum size, showing a decrease with treatment.
