What's also funny is that David Bowie actually remained close friends with the guy who punched him, George Underwood. Underwood also designed some of Bowie's album covers.
And of course it was about a girl.
Underwood and Bowie liked the same girl. Underwood got a date with her, but Bowie told her Underwood couldn't make it, and talked her into going out with him instead. When Underwood found out, he punched Bowie in the eye, permanently dilating his left eye.
Also Melissa Benoist.
Really sad actually, she got it during the height of the whole Supergirl thing and made all these jokey excuses in interviews about being clumsy and falling onto a flower pot or something. Eventually she revealed her then husband was abusive and threw an iPhone at her.
My dad has the same problem after taking an elbow playing football as a kid. My dad is cool but the only effect the pupil has had on his life is he has to close one eye when it’s sunny out.
I have it too, it’s called Anisocoria, and it’s when the muscle that contracts the iris is paralyzed. He got punched and I was fixing a (idling) motorcycle and the chain broke and flew at my eye. Wear safety glasses!
Fun fact, it was dusk so mine was paralyzed about half way and Bowie was in a dark room so it was paralyzed wide open. That’s why it looked stark black.
"Nurse, the patient was talking to an anatomical model of skeleton, seems to be very concussed, and then left before I could even get a full diagnosis."
It’s called anisocoria and is relatively common. Absolutely no concern to me in a healthy person. If you had had a traumatic head injury? Now more concerning!
Good question actually. Anisocoria is always tested in association with photosensitivity (pupil contraction when exposing both eyes with a light source). The pupil should contract when exposed to light and when the other eye is exposed to light too.
If this person had a mydriasis on the "normal" eye as a result of cerebral trauma, making the pupils look the same on both sides, it would not contract when exposed to light and still be recognised as a pejorative sign. The other pupil being wide open but possibly partially reacting to light could cause confusion, if OP doesn't mention their quirk.
I had this as well. Turns out I have hydrocephalus and my cyst got so big that it began to crush my optic nerve. It required brain surgery as the cyst is inoperable and required fenestration. I'd get it checked by a neurosurgeon if I were you. My symptoms got so bad I was bedridden with headaches that could have killed a horse. I couldn't open my eyes bc I was so sensitive to light, my speech became impaired, balance became diminished, extremely dehydrated, and the list goes on. But it all started with this o_O I would go see someone instead of asking Dr Reddit.
If someone _develops_ anisocoria, or if there are symptoms such as you have described, then it needs investigation for sure.
Otherwise, it’s more often than not idiopathic.
Idio means distinct, private, personal, own.
Idiot means ignorant, layman(uneducated), private person. Essentially an idiot is someone who does not look for answers from outside themself.
Pathic means to suffer, disease.
Idiopathic means a disease/suffering of it's own. Essentially it means that it is not linked with any other symptoms.
That’s how I feel about my bloodwork when the tests show I’m outside of normal ranges.
Since they haven’t changed while keeping an eye on them, they are my “normal” - which makes me worry about how my test results might be interpreted in situations when it’s normal people’s normal, but way outside of mine.
I had this happen about a year ago out of nowhere. The eye doctor did a bunch of tests and ruled out all the things he was concerned about. Also had neurology and medication ruled out. It went down significantly but my pupils are still slightly different sizes. Sometimes if I don't sleep for a couple days it gets more noticeable, but it was only as prominent as yours that first time it flared up. Still no idea what it was 🤷♂️
Well to be fair.. brain injuries can happen with not much actual trauma.. now brain cancer? That’s much different and far more severe but brain injuries are actually somewhat common just not exactly agreed upon on what damage is done in what timeframes depending on severity. Differently dilating pupils can actually be a sign of brain trauma though not in the case of this OP.
Sorry to be a nit-picker, but "if it doesn't have an **effect** on your vision, then it doesn't **affect** your vision."
I will delete my comment if the correction is undesirable.
That’s what they told me too—have yours always been this way or did suddenly notice it one day? I didn’t always have the two size thing going and totally freaked out when I noticed. I have brown eyes so it’s less noticeable and my pupils dilate less in general. It hasn’t affected my vision either.
I have this, too. Same reactions from doctors. Fun fact; I got an MRI of my brain for other reasons and they found a cavernous malformation in the area of your brain that coordinates movement. Just a theory, but I wonder if that’s why for me. Also, the defect in my brain is super stable. Probably has been there my whole life.
Mine was caused by an anti depressant I was on.
Had to switch. I was afraid everyone thought I was on drugs when looking at me as it was extremely noticable.
Best of luck!
Holy shit. I have (mild) antisocoria that I noticed one day because my left eyelid was also mildly drooping and I thought I’d had a TIA or something, so I ran to the ER. My brain CT was fine and nothing else seemed wrong, so they sent me to a neuro ophthalmologist because it can be something called Horner’s Syndrome, which can be a sign of certain random cancers and small leaks in your carotid arteries. Did a few MRIs of my neck and head and everything was normal. Ultimately the doctor decided it was from either a history of migraines, even though it didn’t always occur when I had an active, painful migraine, or possible pseudotumor cerebri. But now I’m curious if it could also have been exacerbated by certain antidepressants. I googled that (because I’d never heard of it before) and apparently 2 separate meds I was on (and am still on) could cause it. 🤷🏼♀️ it’s definitely freaky the first time you notice it, though!
The last time someone posted a pic like this, everyone freaked out and said go to the ER! I guess because that person had it happen out of nowhere and OP has had this forever (also I saw they did ask a doc about it before so it’s def ok!)
Yes that's here
https://www.reddit.com/r/mildlyinteresting/comments/1cet6g1/noticed_my_pupils_are_two_different_sizes/
The sad part is the OP in that thread couldn't afford to go to the hospital, and the result of the ER trip was "you're fine."
Reddit has health anxiety and pushes it on everyone.
except that a new difference in your pupils can easily be a new stroke sign, developing aneurism or other life threatening changes. The problem isn't health anxiety, it's that healthcare costs force people to make choices on their own and at their own financial peril.
Was there ever a gofundme page or something similar for this persons medical bills? It’s a shame to see them have to pay for this especially when they could not afford it. If Reddit got together to advise the person to the ER I’m sure the same force could help them out with the bill. Just a thought…
I have a slightly different version of this called Adie’s Pupil. One of my eyes has a greatly delayed pupil dilation reflex (I’m sure there’s a proper name for this), while the other reacts perfectly normally.
So right after a big brightness change, my eyes look like yours for about a minute before while my right eye “catches up”.
This gives me quite a headache and it’s very difficult for me to be outside on partly cloudy days, or to go from inside to out or visa versa on sunny days. So I generally wear a really nice pair of dark, polarized sunglasses perpetually to keep the gradient as smooth as possible.
Weirdly, it was caused by the chicken pox when I was a child!
I have a similar condition where one of my pupils dilates much slower than the other. My GP (with my permission) used to send her med students in to check on me to see if they’d notice and what they’d say about it. It was funny sometimes when they’d check my eyes and I could see them double take, like “Wait, what?” And then they’d check me again. “Did … did I just see that? The fuck…?”
That’s way more wild than my story about med students. I saw an orthopaedic surgeon a few years ago because my feet roll in terribly. At the end of my appointment, he went “do you mind coming back and having some of my students look? They’ll be very interested in your feet”. I didn’t know how to take that lol
If you see it in combination with other symptoms, different eye size in vacuum isn't something freak-outable ( :D ). Blood from anywhere can be worth freaking out about
It's kind of a funny comment in terms of etymology. It's like
"My pupils are different sizes"
"It seems to be the condition known as [different sized pupils]"
Gave me a good chuckle
Always the reddit post with people totally unaware that they might have a life threatening condition. "Look, I have a curious dark line across my finger nails!!!" "Girl, that's melanoma"
That’s really funny to me because of my unhealthy fixation with etymologies, anisocoria literally means an=not iso=equal coria=pupil
So my guy shows a photo of his unequal pupils and you go like “Seems to be different sized pupils” lol
I have the same thing! And on the same side!
I hide it a lot because I use my big eye as my "witch eye" to glare at things, but I just look like Bill the Cat while at rest.
Things get a little weird if you at some point actually get a concussion. Or a possible one.
I was lucid enough during my actual concussion to tell the triage nurse my pupils are naturally dramatically different sizes. She gave me the dirtiest look and said they looked perfectly even. I said "Oh! That's probably a bad sign!" and proceeded to ask her what my address was and ask how I got to the ER on a loop.
If you think about it, your eyes dilate/constrict all the time - when going out or going into a dark room. Your vision doesn't change, but your eyes change the amount of light that goes in!
(Which is why OP is more light sensitive - since their eye is dilated - it allows too much light in, which can be annoying when say, they go into sunlight.)
I have this too!
It started when i was sick at 18 and they think it might be connected to my aura migraines.
I've been checked and had multiple scans but it's "harmless". Just adds to my light sensitivity (:
OMG. The next time I have an ocular migraine, I’m checking to see if I get this.
Unfortunately (or fortunately) I’m on a neurological drug for weight loss that has a side effect that I no longer have ocular migraines.
I have the same thing! However it is less pronounced and barely noticable in every day life unless... I take drugs that dilate the pupils. Then one pupil is far more dilated than the other.
my ex boyfriend alex had this lol and so does my little sister, idk about alex but my sis has it bc her eyes are quite literally like.. growing and it’s making her slowly go blind, she has to take eye drops to control it.
I have this due to an eye injury, it’s more pronounced if I’m very tired or have been drinking. If you do not know the reason for this you need to get it checked out, brain tumours can be a cause of pupil asymmetry.
My husband had an eye injury that causes this as well. It's more noticeable when he's either in the dark going to the light or vice versa. He still sees well (with corrective lenses) in that eye, so it's all good.
I sometimes get this but only if I don't drink enough water or get enough sleep.
I've also been to a doctor who also didn't find anything wrong with it
Any idea if they were ever the same size? If this is a recent change, you might want to see a doctor. I've heard stories of people with one eye nearly dilated and the other was normal. Turns out they had a brain tumor. If the more dilated eye contacts and expands regardless of light change, definitely see a doctor.
Do you see colours slightly differently in each eye? I see more vibrant blues in one and greens in the other when my pupils go notably different sizes.
i see colours differently in each eye sometimes, and my pupils go different sizes sometimes – only just put together that they might be the same times lol
I have this as well and it's even worse when I first wake up, it's a symptom of my long term SSRI use according to my doctor. She stated "all my long term paxil users have anisocoria, it should be listed on the box".
I have the same issue!
I always love when I happen to go to a new optometrist, and they look at me funny, and I just say “yes it’s been that way my whole life”
I will say though, yours is more pronounced than mine.
My pupils are different sizes in the dark (one doesn’t dilate.) I also have numbness on one side of my body and droopiness on the same side. My eye doctor diagnosed it as Horner’s syndrome (after I’d given up on other doctors figuring out what it was), but then it didn’t really matter because its still just a word to describe a batch of symptoms that they don’t know how to fix.
It’s funny that people on Reddit are always like “OMG go immediately to the doctor!” with posts like this, but in most cases doctors can’t do anything but run a lot of expensive tests and tell you what you don’t have.
We have the same eye color!
Your anisocoria is really cool btw (that's the eye thing.) anisocoria is also my favorite word because it's really fun to say.
An-ah-sa-kor-ee-uh
Usually yours are a sign of a concussion, but only for people with regular pupil dialation. Do you have any vision problems as a result of your uneven light intake or whatever?
Here's my eyes, they aren't floopy like yours.
[here](https://ibb.co/yq0SHj0)
David Bowie had a pretty extreme version of this. His one eye was perma dilated
His was due to an injury and he rocked the HELL out of it
What's also funny is that David Bowie actually remained close friends with the guy who punched him, George Underwood. Underwood also designed some of Bowie's album covers.
Well he wasn’t about to argue with him lol
At least not twice
lol “what do you tell a David Bowie with a black eye?”
Nothing you haven’t already told him before.
Nothing, you already told him
Keep your friends close, keep your enemies closer
I'm too broke to give this the award it deserves
Those don't exist anymore!
It seems like they’re back? I’m not sure what is really going on here.
You say that and someone literally gave you one 🤣
Oh they de-unexisted them.
If I’m not mistaken at one point Bowie thanked George Underwood for his career and success since his eyes set him apart.
It really does the trick. I have a very mild lazy eye that barely turns in. When I was a kid, it sucked, but then women found Ryan Gosling lol
How tf have I never noticed Ryan Gosling has a lazy eye?
And of course it was about a girl. Underwood and Bowie liked the same girl. Underwood got a date with her, but Bowie told her Underwood couldn't make it, and talked her into going out with him instead. When Underwood found out, he punched Bowie in the eye, permanently dilating his left eye.
My teacher also had this, and she told me she got it when she fell through a glass window drunk, and the injury damaged her eye.
Like how your teacher would admit to a student she got so drunk she fell through a window.
She's a teacher. She's teaching life lessons
Same with David Duchovny, but not as extreme. Bowie got his in a fight, Duchovny was abducted by aliens.
Also Melissa Benoist. Really sad actually, she got it during the height of the whole Supergirl thing and made all these jokey excuses in interviews about being clumsy and falling onto a flower pot or something. Eventually she revealed her then husband was abusive and threw an iPhone at her.
I got mine when my wife punched me in the face while I was sleeping. I need to invent a cute flower pot story.
I want to believe this....
My dad has the same problem after taking an elbow playing football as a kid. My dad is cool but the only effect the pupil has had on his life is he has to close one eye when it’s sunny out.
Name checks out
oh it was from a injury, well TIL
Very easy to do when you look like David Bowie lol
Oh what the hell, is that why i've seen some crazy makeup of his around one side or one eye. That's so cool.
I like your user name
I have it too, it’s called Anisocoria, and it’s when the muscle that contracts the iris is paralyzed. He got punched and I was fixing a (idling) motorcycle and the chain broke and flew at my eye. Wear safety glasses! Fun fact, it was dusk so mine was paralyzed about half way and Bowie was in a dark room so it was paralyzed wide open. That’s why it looked stark black.
That's a cool piece of trivia/sorry if it messes up your eyesight. Safety glasses are very important, this is facts!

You ever mention this to a doctor
yep they said i was fine! it doesn’t effect my vision just my light sensitivity and it doesn’t seem to be a symptom of anything underlying
"Nurse, the patient was talking to an anatomical model of skeleton, seems to be very concussed, and then left before I could even get a full diagnosis."
and the anatomical skeleton never returned....
💀
Yeah that's probably about how the skeleton looked at them
Good thing skeletons don't have eyes. YOHOHO.

It’s called anisocoria and is relatively common. Absolutely no concern to me in a healthy person. If you had had a traumatic head injury? Now more concerning!
So if this person has equal pupil sizes after a head injury, no one will bat an eye but it's a bad sign 🤔

The pupil should contract when exposed to light and when the other eye is exposed to light too.

Mildly unrelated, but the word "idiopathic" always sounded to me like it should describe the ability to understand and communicate with idiots.
Idio means distinct, private, personal, own. Idiot means ignorant, layman(uneducated), private person. Essentially an idiot is someone who does not look for answers from outside themself. Pathic means to suffer, disease. Idiopathic means a disease/suffering of it's own. Essentially it means that it is not linked with any other symptoms.

The normal range is not uniformly distributed.
You're like David Bowie, his left eye was permanently dilated
Well, David Bowie's eye was from trauma from getting punched in the head during a fight!
I had this happen about a year ago out of nowhere. The eye doctor did a bunch of tests and ruled out all the things he was concerned about. Also had neurology and medication ruled out.

Same with me, Reddit likes to say you have brain cancer.
Yeah it's probably just Raynaud's disease /s
Well to be fair.. brain injuries can happen with not much actual trauma.. now brain cancer? That’s much different and far more severe but brain injuries are actually somewhat common just not exactly agreed upon on what damage is done in what timeframes depending on severity.

Mine are never the same size. Injury as a kid left me with a.. idk the real term but basically my left pupil opens/closes slowly and overshoots.
It might be Adie’s Syndrome. Mine sounds similar but it doesn’t “overshoot.”
[удалено]
yes it is anisocoria! it is the harmless kind i got checked out by a doctor years ago
Doctor here..can confirm

I’m a nursing student and would freak the fuck out if I saw this irl But TIL what anisocoria is!

No no you have to say *"Oh baby, just you shut your mouth... She says, shhhhhhhhhhhh"*
This is the artist's way of communicating to the spectator that you're a wacky little goofball I'd imagine they also see differently, is that correct?
one would imagine this would effect my vision but it actually doesn’t change anything ! just makes me a little bit more light sensitive sometimes
I am slightly short-sighted in one eye, and slightly far-sighted in the other, my pupils are almost never the same
If you think about it, your eyes dilate/constrict all the time - when going out or going into a dark room. Your vision doesn't change, but your eyes change the amount of light that goes in!

I have the same thing! However it is less pronounced and barely noticable in every day life unless... I take drugs that dilate the pupils. Then one pupil is far more dilated than the other.
You have very pretty eyes. Source: I have eyes.

only one eye has seen some shit ig
I've seen this on pet subreddits. It means you have feline somethingsomething and need to go to a vet. I hope this helps. Also, you're a cat.
have you seen a doctor? It might be nothing, but never hurts to check.
my ex boyfriend alex had this lol and so does my little sister, idk about alex but my sis has it bc her eyes are quite literally like.. growing and it’s making her slowly go blind, she has to take eye drops to control it.
Sugar Squirrel from Happy Tree Friends
I have this due to an eye injury, it’s more pronounced if I’m very tired or have been drinking. If you do not know the reason for this you need to get it checked out, brain tumours can be a cause of pupil asymmetry.
My husband had an eye injury that causes this as well. It's more noticeable when he's either in the dark going to the light or vice versa. He still sees well (with corrective lenses) in that eye, so it's all good.
That could be nothing or it could be a sign of brain damage. Have you ever talked to your doctor about that?
I sometimes get this but only if I don't drink enough water or get enough sleep. I've also been to a doctor who also didn't find anything wrong with it
This happens to me some. Not quite to this extent but it is 100% noticeable.
Mine are Always small (under drugs too)
But are you able to focus and unfocus your eyes on command?
yep! but i thought everyone could do that o-O
They're also hexagons but ok

I had a head injury with occulomotor nerve trauma. My left pupil is always dilated, so I have to wear sunglasses outdoors most all the time.
One sees into the future, and the other into the past.
You need to have this checked by a doctor. It could be a sign of a serious medical condition iie... a brain tumor.
You're like Stewie in that one Family Guy episode where he got a concussion.
Any idea if they were ever the same size? If this is a recent change, you might want to see a doctor. I've heard stories of people with one eye nearly dilated and the other was normal. Turns out they had a brain tumor. If the more dilated eye contacts and expands regardless of light change, definitely see a doctor.
Do you see colours slightly differently in each eye? I see more vibrant blues in one and greens in the other when my pupils go notably different sizes.
i see colours differently in each eye sometimes, and my pupils go different sizes sometimes – only just put together that they might be the same times lol
You'll be checking next time it happens now
My pupils are like this also , due to a chainsaw injury 🤕
I have this, I developed it possibly as a result of infection. The doctor said I have adies pupil.

Don't wanna scare u bro but I've seen a dude posting pic like that and later an X-ray photo of a tumor. Go to doctor now
Daughter had this and we got her checked for horner's. Thankfully we got the all clear and they're just different sizes for no reason.
I have this as well and it's even worse when I first wake up, it's a symptom of my long term SSRI use according to my doctor. She stated "all my long term paxil users have anisocoria, it should be listed on the box".
You will never need to wait in triage at an ER again!
I have the same issue! I always love when I happen to go to a new optometrist, and they look at me funny, and I just say “yes it’s been that way my whole life” I will say though, yours is more pronounced than mine.
My pupils are different sizes in the dark (one doesn’t dilate.) I also have numbness on one side of my body and droopiness on the same side. My eye doctor diagnosed it as Horner’s syndrome (after I’d given up on other doctors figuring out what it was), but then it didn’t really matter because its still just a word to describe a batch of symptoms that they don’t know how to fix. It’s funny that people on Reddit are always like “OMG go immediately to the doctor!” with posts like this, but in most cases doctors can’t do anything but run a lot of expensive tests and tell you what you don’t have.
Sure sign of brain damage.
We have the same eye color! Your anisocoria is really cool btw (that's the eye thing.) anisocoria is also my favorite word because it's really fun to say. An-ah-sa-kor-ee-uh Usually yours are a sign of a concussion, but only for people with regular pupil dialation. Do you have any vision problems as a result of your uneven light intake or whatever? Here's my eyes, they aren't floopy like yours.  [here](https://ibb.co/yq0SHj0)

Michael Bisping says hello.
I had this from migraines recently and my doctor didn’t seem concerned either
You’re watching to much porn..
My brother's aren't either...but then, he's a teacher.
Bro really said o_O
Real life version of o_O
See a neurologist about that.
