This is a prospective multi-center cohort feasibility and exploratory study.
Investigators propose to prospectively study a cohort of 18-25-year-old athletes to establish the reliability of EYE-SYNC data and the utility of the EYE-SYNC eye-tracking device as a sideline concussion assessment tool. The clinical research study will be conducted to 1) determine if eye-tracking, assessed on the sideline by EYE-SYNC eye-tracking device, is a potential marker of injury that can be used in conjunction with other sideline evaluations to inform decisions regarding removal of athletes from play and 2) to use the EYE-SYNC goggle data as a post- injury recovery monitor.

The EYE-SYNC® portable eye-tracking system. The eye tracker is a handheld isolated display environment with embedded eye tracking sensors. The eye tracker is connected to a high-performance Windows tablet though a customized docking station. Included accessories with EYE-SYNC are a U.S. tablet power supply adapter and disposable sanitary masks. Participants are asked to follow a dot with their eyes, as the dot moves on the screen of the EYE-SYNC device.
Following subtests of SCAT-3 will be administered to the participant: Symptom, Balance, Orientation and Immediate memory
Participant will be asked to read list of numbers out loud from a card

Changes in the Measurement of EYE-SYNC Data Immediately After Concussive Event, 2 Days, 7 Days and 14 Days Post Concussive Event.
The EYE-SYNC test will be performed immediately after an impact, 2 days, 7 days and 14 days post impact. The movement of eye will be tracked using EYE-SYNC. The data will be recorded in a surface tablet connected to EYE-SYNC.
Time frame: Immediate post impact, 2 days, 7 days and 14 days post impact.
Reliability of EYE-SYNC Data
The integrity will be analyzed based on the score obtained from EYE-SYNC device.
Time frame: Immediate post impact, 2 days, 7 days and 14 days post impact.
Integrity of EYE-SYNC Data
The reliability will be analyzed based on the score obtained from EYE-SYNC.
Time frame: Immediate post impact, 2 days, 7 days and 14 days post impact.
Compare Sport Concussion Assessment Tool (SCAT-3) Test and EYE-SYNC Score
The SCAT-3 result and EYE-SYNC score will be compared.
Time frame: Immediate post impact, 2 days, 7 days and 14 days post impact.
Compare ANAM-SRT Test and EYE-SYNC Score
The Automated Neuropsychological Assessment Metrics-Simple Reaction Time (ANAM-SRT) evaluation and EYE-SYNC score will be compared.
Time frame: Immediate post impact, 2 days, 7 days and 14 days post impact.
Compare DEM Test and EYE-SYNC Score
The Developmental Eye Movement (DEM) assessment and EYE-SYNC score will be compared.
Time frame: Immediate post impact, 2 days, 7 days and 14 days post impact.

Participants will perform Simple Reaction Time sub-test of ANAM-SRT test. They will be asked to click the mouse button every time they see an asterisk on the screen. Participants will perform ANAM-SRT 1 and ANAM-SRT 2 in this study.
Participants will answer questions. This assessment is to assess their alertness level.
