Observational studies using portable eye-tracking devices were included. Databases searched included PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane, with studies screened and reviewed by two independent authors. Outcomes assessed were eye movements and visual responses in neurological patients. The Critical Appraisal Skills Program (CASP) checklist was used to assess study quality and bias.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>A total of 62 studies were identified, with 27 included after screening. The findings reveal significant advancements in device accessibility, sampling rates, and accuracy, which enhance the ability to detect subtle cognitive changes through eye movement patterns. Portable devices such as Neurolign DX 100 (Neurolign USA, LLC) and Tobii (Tobii), which is a portable video-oculography (VOG) devices including Neurolign DX 100 and Tobii systems, were highlighted for their precision and applicability in clinical settings.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Portable eye-tracking devices show promise for detecting cognitive impairments in neurological conditions like multiple sclerosis. Their portability and ease of use facilitate widespread clinical application, making cognitive assessments more accessible and effective in early diagnosis and monitoring of disease progression.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0046-1817035","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,20]],"date-time":"2026-03-20T00:38:12Z","timestamp":1773967092000},"page":"001-010","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Portable eye-tracking in neurology: current uses and future perspectives in cognition"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"84","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1474-1849","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Diogo","family":"Haddad-Santos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade de S\u00e3o Paulo, S\u00e3o Paulo SP, Brazil."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7435-1610","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Carolina B.","family":"Moura","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Irmandade Santa Casa da Miseric\u00f3rdia de S\u00e3o Paulo, S\u00e3o Paulo SP, Brazil."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-0269-2948","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Maria T.","family":"Martinez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade de S\u00e3o Paulo, S\u00e3o Paulo SP, Brazil."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4790-5301","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ana","family":"Morgado","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Univerisdade Federal Fluminense, Hospital Universit\u00e1rio Antonio Pedro, Niter\u00f3i RJ, Brazil."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0077-173X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dagoberto","family":"Callegaro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade de S\u00e3o Paulo, S\u00e3o Paulo SP, Brazil."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3147-4877","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alex","family":"Kiderman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Spryson America Inc, Pittsburgh PA, United States."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8414-8536","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Renato","family":"Anghinah","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade de S\u00e3o Paulo, S\u00e3o Paulo SP, Brazil."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,19]]},"reference":[{"issue":"02","key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.16910\/jemr.15.2.4","article-title":"(2022).
