Title Walsh & Hoyt: Nonorganic Disorders of Pupillary Size and Reactivity
Creator Neil R. Miller, MD
Affiliation Professor of Ophthalmology, Johns Hopkins University
Subject Nonorganic Disease; Pupillary Size; Pupillary Reactivity
Description A variety of pupillary phenomena have been described in patients with various types of psychiatric and psychogenic diseases. Investigators once hoped that certain disturbances of shape, size, and reactivity of one or both pupils could be used to diagnose specific psychiatric conditions. This has proved not to be the case. Pupillary phenomena associated with psychiatric and psychogenic conditions are considered in detail by Loewenfeld, and the interested reader should consult her authoritative text for further information. It suffices here to mention only a few of these phenomena.
