Unequal Pupils?

Hi, recently I’ve noticed my pupils are different sized, more so when I’m in a dark setting. The size difference isn’t massive and both of my pupils still dilate when I change the lighting and they dilate at the same time and the same amount. I also started looking at photos of myself and I’ve noticed a picture of myself from a year and a half ago and my pupils were still different sizes. I’ve researched this phenomenon and I know it is called Anisocoria. I’ve come to the conclusion that it is most likely physiological Anisocoria, but I’m still curious if I should get it checked or not.imageimage

    I agree, perfectly Normal to have different sized pupils, if you check you will find one side of your body is bigger than the other, I have one eyeball bigger than the other

    Hi there,

    I have one smaller two which changes when wearing my glasses and my daughter who fell when she was little has one significantly smaller and didn't before the fall?

    I don't know if this links but, I am also colour blind in just one eye. I thought everyone had different views from each eye.
