Opiate Overdose
Opiate overdose is characterized by respiratory depression, reduced consciousness, and miosis.[symptoma.com]
Constricted pupils (miosis) or poor arousability in a slow-breathing patient further suggest opioid toxicity.[pulmccm.org]

Ipsilateral clinical features include the following: Ataxia and dysmetria, due to damage to the inferior cerebellar peduncle and cerebellum Horner syndrome (eg, ptosis, miosis[emedicine.medscape.com]
Uveitis
Spasm of the ocular sphincter muscle causes miosis.[symptoma.com]
Pupillary miosis is common. Slit-lamp examination This is the most important aspect of the examination.[emedicine.com]
Mydriatics: Mydriatics are given to counter the severe miosis.[symptoma.com]
Anterior Uveitis
Clinical features: Symptoms: pain due to ciliary spasm, red eye, photophobia, decreased vision and tearing Signs: Circumcorneal ciliary injection, irregular pupil or miosis[dro.hs.columbia.edu]

Brain Stem Hemorrhage
The fulminating malignant course is characterised by rapid onset of coma, miosis, tetraplegia and respiratory disturbances.[link.springer.com]
Iritis
[…] iritis. [6], [4] IOP may be increased due to inflammatory process or it may be decreased due to damage of the ciliary body’s ability to produce aqueous humor. [10], [4] Miosis[eyewiki.aao.org]

Horner's Syndrome
Postoperatively, left ptosis and miosis had improved slightly.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Horner's syndrome is characterized by a classic triad of ipsilateral pupillary miosis, partial eyelid ptosis, and facial anhydrosis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Metabolic Encephalopathy
Fumarase deficiency is a very rare inborn error of metabolism caused by decreased activity of fumarate hydratase enzyme. We describe a fumarase-deficient infant who presented with encephalopathy, metabolic crisis, psychomotor retardation, hypotonia, seizures, and facial dysmorphism. To our knowledge, this is the[…][ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
