This is just for your own personal use? While I'm a big fan of
gadgets, having your own pupilometer is a bit of overkill.
Just run to your local WalMart/Sams/CostCo/Sears/Barnes/etc and ask
them nicely to measure your PD. Even if they charge you (I've never
been charged) you'll come out way ahead.
Adult PD does not change...and even if it did, at $5 per measurement
you could be measured 18 different times before reaching $90.
