Pupillary distance (PD) is the measurement (in millimeters) of the distance between the pupils of your eyes. Pupillary distance is an important measurement used to determine the proper lens shape and alignment of your prescription correction to your line of vision.
The pupil size is closely regulated by muscles in the iris. They expand and contract constantly to allow a certain amount of light into the eye. Certain conditions and medications can alter the function of these muscles and lead to abnormally dilated or constricted pupils. In absence of these causative factors, a patient's normal pupillary size can range between 2mm and 8mm in size.
