Entrundete Pupillen: What They Mean and When to See a Doctor

What Are Entrundete Pupillen?

Entrundete Pupillen, also known as dilated pupils, occur when the pupils become abnormally large and round. This can be a sign of a number of underlying medical conditions, including:

*

Drug use

*

Eye injury

*

Neurological conditions

Causes of Entrundete Pupillen

The most common cause of entrundete pupillen is drug use. Certain drugs, such as opioids and hallucinogens, can cause the pupils to dilate. Other causes of entrundete pupillen include:

*

Eye injury: A blunt force injury to the eye can damage the iris, which is the colored part of the eye that controls the size of the pupil.

*

Neurological conditions: Certain neurological conditions, such as Horner's syndrome and Adie's tonic pupil, can also cause entrundete pupillen.

When to See a Doctor

Entrundete pupillen can be a sign of a serious medical condition. If you experience entrundete pupillen, it is important to see a doctor right away. The doctor will perform a physical examination and ask you about your symptoms. The doctor may also order tests, such as a blood test or an MRI, to determine the underlying cause of the entrundete pupillen.

Treatment for Entrundete Pupillen

The treatment for entrundete pupillen depends on the underlying cause. If the entrundete pupillen are caused by drug use, the doctor will recommend stopping the drug. If the entrundete pupillen are caused by an eye injury, the doctor may recommend surgery to repair the damage. If the entrundete pupillen are caused by a neurological condition, the doctor may recommend medication or other treatments to manage the condition.
