My daughter has ddifferent size pupils

Posted , 2 users are following.

hiya last month my daughter who is 8 had a eye test and he saw 2 freckles at the back of her eye on the pictures he wasn't concerned but I took her to a different opticians and they couldn't see it in the pictures from the back of the eye so they dilated her pupils but it only worked in her right eye took few hours to go back to normal but few days ago she said to me my right pupil looks bigger so I had a look and when shes near dim light when her pupils are dilated I've noticed her right pupil is bigger than her left but when shes in light they both go small and look the same size. its freaked me out now I'm constantly checking her eyes like I dont no if shes always had this as shes the one that noticed it I rang the opticians he said it's normal as long as there going small to big it's quite common but I'm still worried

    I would think that the optician would be more concerned if it was not normal. He must see that all the Time. If you’re overly concerned you could get an appointment with an ophthalmologist for your peace of mind.
