Because its diameter can be changed to alter the light level on the sensor behind it. In a camera this is done by altering the f/number. In the eye it occurs via an automatic physiological response.

Why does astigmatism affect your night vision?
At night, the pupil dilates to let in more light. Astigmatism is a distortion in the cornea that causes different focal lengths for light passing through different parts of the cornea into the lens. With a small aperture (constricted pupil), the differences do not cause noticeable blurring; just as in a camera, a small aperture gives greater depth of field. At night, when the aperture is larger (dilated pupil), the eye has less depth of field, so the imprecise focal length of the eye causes the image to be noticeably blurred.
