Dilation of the pupil in an eye with the synechia can cause the pupil to take an irregular, non-circular shape (Dyscoria) as shown in the photograph.

To subdue the inflammation, use topical corticosteroids.
These conditions may dilate only one pupil, or they may dilate the pupils to a different degree on each side, resulting in unequal pupil size. Pupils that do not respond to light or other stimuli are called fixed pupils. Often, abnormally dilated pupils are also fixed pupils.Dilated pupils or pupils that are unequal in size can be a sign of serious conditions affecting the brain, including stroke, bleeding or tumor and often signal the presence of a medical emergency.Head trauma may also produce dilated or unequal pupils that accompany other brain injuries.ften, abnormally dilated pupils are also fixed pupils.
