  You'd better not to read when you got dilated pupils, because the dilated pupils make your eyes difficult in focusing or reading. The vision up close is affected. If you insist reading with your dilated pupil, you might find it challenging. I suggest you to take a rest for at least 3-4 hours until your eyes get back to normal function. If you need to go outside into a bright environment, it would be better for you to wear sunglasses. Because your pupils are dilated, which work as camera aperture, the dilated pupils will let too much light into your eyes, and damage your eyes. You should note what medication you are taking can make your pupils dilated.
