I don’t know much about those medical conditions, but it doesn’t take that much imagination to understand that access to eye-gaze data would pretty much give developers mind-reading abilities against whoever is wearing the headset. As the platform matures it will probably be a whole discussion around how it works, who gets access to it and for what reason. I could imagine Apple putting their weight behind developing all sorts of wild disability features.

Developers control what goes in front of the user and where, we'll still be able to tell plenty about a user's decision making process given that and how their head and hands navigate the space. There are plenty of companies that specialize in this as their entire product offering, assessing fitness for duty, alertness, attention mapping, etc. Plenty of published research on the matter as well.

The supposed security of blackboxing the eye data itself is illusory and functionally just for marketing.

I want the next generation of UIs to be so easy and natural to use that it feels like they're reading my mind.
