Pupils dilate and constrict in order to allow an adequate amount of light to pass through the retina. Both great or small amount of light will damage retina and vision. For example, if eyes are exposed to eyes suddenly, and pupils do not constrict, a great amount of light will pass to the retina and the vision will be damaged. Similarly, if there is no enough light and pupil do not dilate, a small amount of light will pass to the retina and, again, the vision will be damaged.

Part I

In extension to measuring the amount of light that enters the eye, the pupillary light reflex presents a helpful diagnostic tool. It provides for examining the uprightness of the sensory and motor functions of the eye. if your pupils didn't shut suddenly when abruptly disclosed to light, you'll get a tremendous shot of light (simultaneously with UV rays and other possibly dangerous rays) to your retina, which can severely mess up your vision.

Part II

Without it, we would go blind. If there is not sufficient light and the pupils do not dilate, a small number of light will pass to the retina and the image will be damaged.
