Adie syndrome, also known as Holmes–Adie syndrome, is a neurological disorder characterized by a tonically dilated pupil that reacts slowly to light but shows a more definite response to accommodation (i.e., light-near dissociation).

Adie's tonic pupil is usually associated with a benign peripheral neuropathy (Adie syndrome), not with syphilis. [ 6 ] When penicillin became widely available in the 1940s, the prevalence of AR pupils (which develop only after decades of untreated infection) decreased dramatically.
Holmes and Adie shared interests in neurology and neuroanatomy, and in 1941 they published separate papers on the condition which now bears their conjoined eponym, Holmes–Adie syndrome. It seems probable that they had entered into extensive discussion of the disorder which they had documented.
Ross' syndrome consists of Adie's syndrome (myotonic pupils and absent deep tendon reflexes) plus segmental anhidrosis (typically associated with compensatory hyperhidrosis). [ 1 ] It was characterized in 1958 [ 2 ] [ 3 ] by A.T. Ross. [ 4 ]
