so im wondering what in mushrooms and why do mushrooms cause your eyes to dialate so much? and do any of you notice that when this happens, you can simply see more? i think its because when your eyes dilate so does your peripheral vision, causing you to be able to see more in your vision....any thought?

From what I understand, the shape of the lens in your eye determines how much periferal vision you have, minus the boundaries around your eye socket. And as far as dialation goes, it varies the amount of light that enters your vision, letting you see in the dark and preventing the sun from frying your retina (The few light-reciever cells in the back of your eye).
One of my theories about pupil dialation and hallucination is this. If you have ever had your eyes dialated with drops, either at a doctors office or elsewhere, you cant focus well for hours afterward. I've noticed that, for me, its easier to see hallucinate when i loose focus on objects. So if I can't focus at all on shrooms, I see much stuff.

Wikipedia is totally a great resource for friendly discussions that need not medical journals or non-laymans texts to answer a simple question like "can LSD poisin you?" This is especially true because it is often moderated by the people who create the articles, and common knowledge is always the first to be corrected. If you were to write a term paper, however, it would indeed be an unreliable source.

hmm you ever have a deep deep convo with someone where your both on the level and its really intense and you kinda start to trip that makes the eyes dialate as well or even just talking or looking at someone you love can cause dialation when your really relaxed it happens. A good example was with a friend of mine on lsa when he would talk to certain people his eyes would constrict or if he was doing something he was focusing on, now if he was looking at the sky or nature or talking to me his eyes would be super dialated to the max
