With the yes, I mean in people with undiagnosed sleep apnea. Their eyes will appear smaller, not as wide open as people without sleep apnea?

The answer to your second question is no.

Not only not diagnosed, but not effectively TREATED. Either condition will possibly have the person appearing to be inattentive, sleepy, with lidded eyes....yes. In fact, the problem can be narcolepsy. Note that there is a wide variance in how those with undiagnosed/untreated OSA or CSA appear and otherwise behave.

Do you mean, 'will someone with undiagnosed and untreated sleep apnea appear tired?' - yes, of course they will. I thought you were asking if their pupils looked different.
