A computer-implemented method and system includes accessing neurophysiological and neurovascular data recorded during sleep. A device mounted on a subject's head during sleep can gather neurovascular data by measuring transcranial impedance. The device can be in the form of a single band, multiple bands, or a headcap that are worn on the subject's head. Electrodes located along an inner surface of the wearable device contact the subject's head and measure transcranial impedance. Transcranial impedance measurements are gathered from multiple locations on the subject's head and over multiple frequencies to obtain a more complete assessment of glymphatic flow.

In various embodiments, methods and systems, of an ionic varistor system is provided. The ionic varistor system includes an electrolyte-membrane assembly having a liquid electrolyte that is enclosed in a solid electrolyte membrane. The ionic varistor system further includes conductive contacts operably coupled to the electrolyte-membrane assembly. The electrolytic-membrane assembly is operably coupled to an electrical potential surface. As the ionic concentration in the electrical potential surface is increased or decreased, some ions diffuse through the solid electrolyte membrane, causing the ions to mix with the liquid electrolyte to achieve an electrostatic equilibrium state that is thermally and mechanically stable. The liquid electrolyte and the diffused ions create an encapsulated ion channel in the electrolyte-membrane assembly. The electrical conductivity of the encapsulated ion channel increases as the ion concentration increases such that the complete electrolyte-membrane assembly produces electrical resistance. The ion concentration is measured as indicator of electrical potential of the electrical potential surface.

An electrical stimulation and bio-potential measurement device is provided.

A device providing an indication of eye disease in a patient comprises a light emitter; an optical assembly arranged so that light emitted from the light emitter reaches an eye of the patient; a camera arranged to image the eye of the patient; and a controller. The controller measures the eye's pupil area using images received from the camera and adjusts the luminance of the light emitted from the light emitter as a non-constant function of the eye's pupil area so as to create a plurality of stimulus intervals. At least two of the stimulus intervals differ in their average retinal illuminance. The controller analyzes the pupil measurements and/or an electrical response in at least two of the stimulus intervals to provide an indication of eye disease based. In some embodiments, the patient's age is also used in the analysis. Methods of using said device are also contemplated.

A left electronic-component compartment has a left FPC receiving port, through which a flexible printed circuit (FPC) is inserted into the left electronic-component compartment, located adjacent to a left hinge.

An FPC compartment in a left rim is slit-shaped. A left FPC positioning member supports a flexible printed circuit (FPC) in the FPC compartment such that a main surface of the FPC extends substantially horizontally. The FPC supported in the FPC compartment is twisted by substantially 90 at an entrance to a left hinge. The FPC extends around a hinge pin and is received in a left electronic-component compartment. The FPC is held in the left electronic-component compartment such that the main surface of the FPC extends substantially vertically. A left end piece located adjacent to the left hinge has a left cavity accommodating a left deformable bend of the FPC.
