Hello
It seems from the history that your husband is having dilated pupil and he is also having grave' s disease.
The dilated pupil can be because of third nerve palsy and since he is having grave' s disease also this requires examination to rule out this cause.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for evaluation and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
