Abstract

This article focuses on the reliability of blink reflex parameters measured by the Blink TBI EyeStat™ device in non-concussed high school athletes before and after a sports season. The study found that most blink reflex parameters remained stable across the season, with moderate to excellent reliability, and that participation in contact versus non-contact sports did not significantly affect these parameters. These results support the device’s potential as an objective tool for assessing injury severity and recovery in sport-related concussion, though further research is recommended to confirm its clinical utility.
