What term would be used to describe the condition of having one pupil larger than the other?

• A. Raccoon eyes
• B. Corneal injection
• C. Anisocoria
• D. Dentalgia

Answer: (C)

The term used to describe the condition of having one pupil larger than the other is anisocoria. This condition can occur due to various causes, including physiological differences, neurological issues, or eye injuries. Anisocoria itself indicates an abnormality in the size of the pupils, with one pupil being noticeably larger than the other, and it can be harmless or signify an underlying condition that may require further evaluation.

Raccoon eyes refer to bruising around the eyes, which is typically associated with trauma, whereas corneal injection involves redness of the eye due to inflammation of the cornea or surrounding tissues, and dentalgia pertains to tooth pain. These other terms do not relate to pupil size and are therefore irrelevant when describing the condition of anisocoria.
