Adie Syndrome
Adie Syndrome is a rare neurological
disorder affecting the pupil of the eye. In most patients the pupil is dilated
(larger than normal) and slow to react to light on nearby objects. In some
patients, however, the pupil may be constricted (smaller than normal) rather
than dilated. Absent or poor reflexes are also associated with this disorder.
Adie Syndrome is neither progressive nor life threatening, nor is it disabling.
