Summary
The paper investigates the interaction between adapting field size and luminance on pupil diameter when cones alone or rods and cones were active, concluding that if corneal flux density is kept constant, there will be no change in pupil diameter as the size of the stimulus field increases at either mesopic or photopic lighting levels up to at least 24°.
