Abstract
A method for identifying an occurrence of a concussion in a subject involves capturing eye blink raw data from at least one eye of the subject. The method next involves analyzing the eye blink raw data to generate at least a first subject specific eye blink metric and determining that a significant difference exists between the first subject specific eye blink metric and a predefined normal value. Next, the occurrence of the concussion in the subject may be identified, based on determining that the significant difference exists.
