Evaluating hearing in newborns and uncooperative patients can pose a considerable challenge. One potential solution might be to employ the Pupil Dilation Response (PDR) as an objective physiological metric. In this dataset descriptor paper, we present a collection of data showing changes in pupil dimension and shape upon presentation of auditory stimuli. In particular, we collected pupil data from 16 subjects, with no known hearing loss, upon different lighting conditions, measured in response to a series of 60–100 audible tones, all of the same frequency and amplitude, which may serve to further investigate any relationship between hearing capabilities and PDRs.
