The eyes can provide important clues during a medical emergency. In this episode, we explain the PEARL assessment and why it is used in first aid and emergency care to help assess neurological function. Learn how to perform a simple pupil assessment, what direct and consensual light reflexes are, and what abnormal pupil findings may indicate. Because sometimes the eyes can reveal what’s happening inside the brain before the patient can say a word.
