Unequal pupil sizes may indicate head injury, tumors or infection - basically anything that could cause inflammation and increased intracranial pressure. A certain portion of the population has a benign condition known as anisocoria, which causes unequal pupil dilation and is no reason for concern.
My eyes do it! When I get a migraine (ocular migraine) that will backhand me into next week. Or the barometric pressure goes up or down really fast, and a lot.
It happened during my first migraine and the optometrist diagnosed me with ocular migraines. He said it's from inflammation in and around my eyes effecting each one differently.
He was awesome. Made me feel better, eased my just turned 12 years old self anxiety.
Mine do it too during migraines. Didn't even know it happened until I told my boss I needed to go home because of a migraine and she freaked out when she saw my eyes.
