My pupils are generally always large, can this be related to my autonomic dysfunction? why are they so large?

Fight or flight: response includes elevated hear rate, elevated BP. dilated pupils drying up of secretions and increased blood flow to skin and muscle. This is due to activation of the sympathetic nervous system. Anticholinergic drugs do the same thing.
