Drug-induced anisocoria in two detainees.

M S Odell1.   

Abstract

Two suspects held by the police were examined for fitness to be interviewed. It was noticed that both had a persistent unilateral dilated pupil in the absence of a history of pre-existing disease or acute head injury. They subsequently admitted to misuse of eye drops. A brief review of the significance of anisocoria (unequal pupils) and drugs that may cause altered pupillary size follows.
