Argyll Robertson pupils (“AR pupils”) are bilateral small pupils that constrict when the patient focuses on a near object, but do not constrict when exposed to bright light (they do not “react” to light). They were formerly known as "prostitute's pupils" because of their association with syphilis and because of the convenient mnemonic that, like a prostitute, they “accommodate but do not react.” They are a highly specific sign of neurosyphilis. In general, pupils that “accommodate but do not react” are said to show light-near dissociation. A video of AR pupils and light-near dissociation is available hereAR pupils are extremely uncommon in the developed world.

| - Argyll Robertson pupils (“AR pupils”) are bilateral small pupils that constrict when the patient focuses on a near object, but do not constrict when exposed to bright light (they do not “react” to light). They were formerly known as "prostitute's pupils" because of their association with syphilis and because of the convenient mnemonic that, like a prostitute, they “accommodate but do not react.” They are a highly specific sign of neurosyphilis. In general, pupils that “accommodate but do not react” are said to show light-near dissociation. A video of AR pupils and light-near dissociation is available hereAR pupils are extremely uncommon in the developed world. There is continued interest in the underlying pathophysiology, but the scarcity of cases makes ongoing research difficult. (en)
- El signo de Argyll Robertson, pupila de Argyll Roberston o señal de Argyll Robertson es una abolición del reflejo fotomotor, contracción de las pupilas a la luz, con conservación a la reacción de acomodación. Las pupilas que presentan esta señal son pequeñas, desiguales y de forma irregular. Mientras que los ojos pueden concentrarse tanto en objetos cercanos como distantes, la respuesta directa y controlateral a la luz se encuentra reducida o ausente. Este signo fue descrito por primera vez por el cirujano oftalmólogo escocés Douglas Argyll Robertson en 1869, aunque no se trataba de una investigación original ya que fue el neurólogo alemán Ernst Remak quien mostró al Dr Argyll Robertson los signos pupilares causados por la tabes dorsal.

- Per segno di Argyll-Robertson si intende un segno clinico scoperto dal medico omonimo, tipico di alcun malattie del sistema nervoso centrale (ad esempio la tabe dorsale, la manifestazione più importante della sifilide terziaria). Il segno di Argyll-Robertson consiste nella perdita del riflesso di miosi alla luce e nel mantenimento di quello di miosi durante l'accomodazione-convergenza. La sede della lesione che produce questo effetto non è attualmente nota ma può spesso interessare la sostanza grigia periacqueduttale. (it)
- Pupilas de Argyll Robertson são pupilas bilateralmente pequenas que se contraem quando o paciente foca em um objeto próximo, mas não se contraem quando expostas ao brilho da luz (não reagindo à luz). Está relacionada com a neurosífilis. (pt)
- Das Argyll-Robertson-Zeichen tritt bei zerebralen Störungen im Bereich des Tectums (Vierhügelplatte) auf. Klinisch zeigt sich dies durch einen Verlust der optischen Reflexe des Auges, dagegen sind die motorischen Reflexe intakt, - es liegt also eine reflektorische Pupillenstarre vor. Typischerweise tritt das Argyll-Robertson-Zeichen bei der Neuro-Lues, aber auch bei anderen Erkrankungen auf. Der schottische Augenchirurg Douglas Moray Cooper Lamb Argyll Robertson, nach dem das Zeichen benannt ist, stellte 1869 die Verbindung zwischen der Syphiliserkrankung und der Lichtstarre der Pupillen fest.

- Argyll Robertsons pupill er en medisinsk tilstand som kan observeres i øyet i sjeldne tilfeller som et resultat av langkommet, ubehandlet syfilis. Pupillene er små og kan være uregelmessige i formen. Pupillerefleksen er svakere eller borte, slik at det tar lengre tid for pupillene å trekke seg sammen når det sendes mer lys i øyet, eller pupillene trekker seg mye mindre sammen enn normalt. Når pasienten ser fra fjernt hold til å se på noe nært, trekker pupillene seg sammen normalt. Denne refleksen er normal ved Argyll Robertsons pupill. Tilstanden ble første gang beskrevet av Douglas Argyll Robertson i 1869. (no)
