OCULAR SYSTEM FOR DIAGNOSING AND MONITORING MENTAL HEALTH

A method of measuring non-invasive ocular metrics is used to diagnose a mental health state of a patient. The method includes presenting a stimuli on an electronic display screen and recording a video of at least one eye of a patient by a video camera. The stimuli is configured to elicit a change in an ocular signal of the patient's eye. Software processes image frames of the video through a series of optimized algorithms configured to isolate and quantify the at least one ocular signal by applying an image mask isolating components. An algorithm estimates a probability of a mental health state based on the change in the at least one ocular signal. The estimated mental health state can be shown to the patient or to a mental health professional.
