Think of your pupil as a tiny, magical door in your eye. This door can open wide or close tight, letting in just the right amount of light. When it’s sunny, the door closes a bit to keep too much light out, like when you squint because the sun is too bright. When it’s dark, the door opens wide to let more light in so you can see better.

Your pupil is like a little superhero that helps you see things clearly. It works together with other parts of your eye, like the iris, which is the colorful ring around the pupil. The iris is like a superhero’s sidekick, helping the pupil by changing size to protect your eyes from too much light or to help you see in the dark.

Imagine your pupil is a tiny camera lens. Just like a camera needs to adjust to take perfect pictures, your pupil adjusts to help you see the world around you. It’s always working to make sure you have the best view possible, whether you’re inside, outside, in the dark, or in the bright sunshine.
