Patients in Intensive Care

This prospective diagnostic study involves a single cohort of patients undergoing pupil assessment. Within this cohort, the evaluations will be performed by three distinct sub-cohorts of healthcare providers: * Senior physicians : Experienced anesthesiologists or critical care specialists with extensive training in pupil evaluation and neurological assessment. * Anesthesiology Residents: Trainees responsible for assessing the pupils of the patients, focusing on their developing assessment skills. * Nurses: Registered nurses involved in the assessment of patients' pupils as part of their routine care.
