Abstract
I performed a pupillographic study of pupillary escape to determine its effectiveness in detecting optic nerve and retinal disease. Fourteen patients and 39 normal subjects were included in the study. Only one patient had abnormal pupillary escape, even though 13 patients had relative afferent pupillary defects. Testing for pupillary escape is not a reliable clinical technique.
