The sphincter papillae controls pupil constriction and is governed by the parasympathetic nervous system. The dilator papillae controls pupil dilation and is governed the sympathetic nervous system. During the fight or flight response, only the sympathetic nervous system is stimulated. With the massive amounts of noradrenaline flowing through this system, the dilator papillae is innervated and the pupils dilate.
