For over a century, scientists believed that light, focus distance, and cognitive effort were the main forces behind changes in pupil size. But a new discovery adds breathing to that list. Researchers ...

Mild exercise like yoga improves mood and executive function, but the neural mechanisms were unclear. Using pupillometry, researchers found that pupil size changes during very light exercise predict ...

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden have discovered a fundamental mechanism that affects the size of the pupil, namely our breathing. The study, published in The Journal of Physiology, ...

IN the past many investigations have been carried out on the static and dynamic reactions of the human pupil to illumination of the eye using white light. In this respect it seems surprising that ...

Researchers have investigated the impact of 10-min very light exercise on pupil size and prefrontal function. Their findings provide the first evidence that changes in pupil size during exercise can ...
