Argyll Robertson pupils (AR pupils) are bilateral small pupils that reduce in size on a near object (i.e., they accommodate), but do not constrict when exposed to bright light (i.e., they do not react).

Argyll Robertson pupils, a clinical feature of neurosyphilis, are characterized by pupils that do not react to light but have an intact accommodation reflex.
