1. A system for assessing a human health condition, wherein:
the system comprises wearable face protection equipment;
the face protection equipment comprises an eye imaging module;
the eye imaging module is configured for imaging an eye component wherein the eye component is selected from the group of:
a retina;
a sclera;
a cornea;
an iris;
a limbus;
a pupil; and
an eyelid;
the eye imaging module determines eye information in response to imaging the eye component at a plurality of times, wherein the eye information is selected from the group of:
eye orientation information at a plurality of times;
pupil size at a plurality of times; and
eyelid position information at a plurality of times;
the system further comprises an electronic circuit;
the electronic circuit is responsive to the eye information to generate an ocular parameter measurement selected from the group of:
a saccade measurement;
a vergence measurement;
a head static smooth pursuit measurement;
a head dynamic smooth pursuit measurement;
a gaze measurement;
an eye fixation measurement;
a pupil size change measurement; and
an eyeblink measurement;
the system is configured to assess a human health condition in response to the ocular parameter measurement from the electronic circuit; and
the assessed human health condition is selected from the group of:
normal human health:
a neurologic condition;
a mental health condition;
a behavioral health condition;
a biochemical health impairment; and
a physiologic impairment.
