Pupil Disorders

What are pupil disorders?

Pupil disorders are changes in the size, shape, or response of the pupils to light. They may affect one or both eyes and can have different causes, ranging from benign changes to conditions that require ophthalmic or neurological evaluation.

What causes pupil disorders?

Pupil abnormalities may be associated with eye trauma, iris conditions, medications, disorders affecting the nerves that control the eye, and certain neurological conditions. Manifestations may include unequal pupil size, an abnormal response to light, or changes in pupil shape.

How are pupil disorders diagnosed and treated?

Diagnosis includes evaluating pupil size and their response to light, along with a comprehensive eye examination. Depending on the symptoms and suspected cause, neurological evaluation or additional testing may be necessary. Treatment depends on the underlying condition.
