1. A device for pupil size and/or pupillary reflex assessment in a subject having closed eyelids, the device comprising:
a non-inductive light source configured to transmit light to a vitreous cavity of a subject; and
a first light detector configured to detect a portion of the transmitted light exiting a first pupil of the subject through a closed eyelid;
a second light detector configured to detect a portion of the transmitted light exiting a second pupil of the subject through a closed eyelid;
wherein the non-inductive light source is configured to transmit light having a wavelength in a range of 750 nm-1400 nm.
