Abstract
The dilated pupil can present a significant challenge to the clinician. Although in most cases a complete history and physical examination is sufficient to make an accurate diagnosis, selected patients will require further investigation, including pharmacologic testing and neuroimaging. This review outlines the physiology, clinical features, and diagnostic approach to the most important causes of the dilated pupil. Particular attention is given to recent publications on this topic.
