My pupils are always sooo dilated?!
Question: Sometimes people say I look like I'm on drugs because of it...I hate it it's sooo annoying. Does this mean I have eye sight problems? Is there anything I can do?

Normal pupil size does vary from person to person.
Larger pupils tend to be more common with a light blue iris (which also makes them more obvious). If they are normally reactive, it means little, and the average size of pupils reduces with age (the iris gets stiffer).
If the pupils are truly large all the time, even in bright light, (or only react weakly) that indicates loss of function in the parasympathetic nerve system, which needs checking out.
Since it involves related nerves, the ability to refocus the eyes for reading would be of considerable interest, here.
Do? Get a professional assessment. It's not likely to be anything serious, but...
Wear sunglasses when it's bright enough to get away with it, if it bothers you, or practice the line "All the better to see you with"!
Miotic eye-drops to shrink the pupils are absolutely nowhere near a first choice option.

maybe you have naturally large pupils. see an optician, they'll tell you.
wear contacts (cosmetic ones that can change the size of your pupil) or lay off the acid ;)
bug eyes?
i have a problem of the same type. i always have red eyes, NOT because I do drugs, but for two reasons.
its hereditary, my mom is exactly the same.
i wear contacts, and i think sometimes they bug my eyes.
