Changes in the pupils in patients with traumatic epilepsy, depending on the seizure
For the diagnosis of lesions of the autonomic nervous system, the state of the pupils and pupillary reflexes are essential. The size and shape of the pupils is determined by the degree of contraction of the smooth muscles that form the sphincter and dilatator of the pupil. Parasympathetic fibers, which run as part of the oculomotor nerve, acting on the sphincter, lead to a narrowing of the pupil, while sympathetic fibers cause its expansion, due to the contraction of the dilator.
