My ex had one eye like that, she claimed it let her see in the dark

Maybe somewhat… It would let more light in, but it wouldn’t be focused correctly.

As in… She had a normal vision?

It results in decreased function of the iris and pupil, affecting the physical eye and visualization.

When the iris becomes deformed, it will disarrange the control of light coming in leading to blurred vision and finding it hard to visually focus.

From what I’m finding it either has no effect or bad effects but never good effects like better night vision so you just got lied to or they said that as a joke and you didn’t get it.

Do both pupils work? How does it effect vision?

It depends. They both contract, but if the second pupil is small, it doesn’t matter. I have a small one, and it just causes uveitis every once in a while. I went half my life without even noticing it.

You can become sensitive to light, and the irritation can slowly cause blindness. That’s pretty much it

One fun thing: if you ever get uveitis, wearing an eye patch won’t work. Your eye will still try to dilate with your other eye. Also your pupil/s will stretch like in the pictures.
