1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
detecting, using an image capture device of an augmented reality device, a set of eye characteristics of a user;
generating a session log for a set of historic augmented reality sessions presented to the user, the session log including a set of session characteristics and eye characteristics of the user occurring during each historic augmented reality session;
based on the eye characteristics of the user occurring during the set of historic augmented reality sessions, generating a set of characteristic thresholds for the user;
in response to detecting the set of eye characteristics, initiating presentation of an augmented reality session using the augmented reality device;
detecting a change to at least one eye characteristic of the set of eye characteristics of the user;
in response to detecting the change and based on the set of characteristic thresholds for the user, determining the change to the at least one eye characteristic indicates a reduced cognitive state of the user; and
in response to determining the change indicates the reduced cognitive state, modifying the augmented reality session being presented to the user.
