Symptom vs sign

edit

In the discussion of Adies pupil, the article starts out by describing the three classic SYMPTOMS of pupil asymmetry, loss of deep tendon reflexes and diaphoresis. Asymmetry of the pupils and the loss of deep tendon reflexes are signs (physical findings) and not symptoms (what the patient feels). Diaphoresis (sweating) is a symptom and can also be a sign. 72.64.74.45 (talk) 23:27, 14 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

The source that describes these three uses symptom, so I think we ought to stick with that. Any of these three can be discovered by the patient (I first noticed that my pupils were dramatically uneven and thought I had a brain tumor or something. :-) ), so I don't think the source is technically incorrect either. --Danger (talk) 23:36, 14 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

why have a photo showing two equally dilated pupils when the syndrome is generally one-sided? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.217.59.229 (talk) 01:41, 29 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

I came here to say exactly this! I'll try to find a better picture. Since it's a syndrome not limited to the pupils, it may not have to be limited to a picture of eyes. --M Killian (talk) 21:42, 20 February 2020 (UTC)Reply
