Hello
It seems from the history that you had a surgery for repair of tear of the iris and the dilated pupil is because of injury to the iris muscles.
If you are having glare and other eye problems, you can use miotic eye drops, but if the pupil is not responding you need to use iris contact lens to avoid glare.
Thank you
