"Tonic" but not "Adie" pupils.

Michael Kelly-Sell1, Grant T Liu.   

Abstract

Tonic pupils react poorly to light but constrict during viewing of a near stimulus. Adie's name is typically used in association with tonic pupils, but a review of Adie's articles reveals that he described the syndrome of tonic pupils and absent reflexes and not the pupillary abnormality per se. Therefore, it would be more appropriate to refer to a tonic pupil as simply a "tonic pupil" and leave Adie's name for the syndrome.
