Claim 9:
10. A method for monitoring humidity in a periocular air space of a headset, comprising:
providing a housing configured to define a periocular air space between the housing and at least one eye of a wearer;
measuring a physiological parameter of the at least one eye;
measuring a humidity of air within the periocular air space;
accessing memory having stored therein i) a mathematical relationship that uses a physiological measurement and a measured humidity as inputs, to output a corrected or adjusted physiological measurement, or ii) a table that defines a relationship whose dimensions include a physiological measurement and a humidity measurements; and
determining an ophthalmic condition is-based on applying the measured humidity and the physiological parameter to the stored mathematical relationship or the stored table, wherein the physiological parameter relates to blinking of the eye and the ophthalmic condition corresponds to a dry eye condition.
