Widen, as pupils (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dilate

'widen as pupils' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for dilate that I've seen before include "Tailed (anag)" , "Widen in detail as pupils may" , "Enlarge or widen, like pupils perhaps" , "Expand in detail" , "Widen as eyes may" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post, the Newsday.com, the King Feature Syndicate, The New York Times, the L.A. Times Daily, the Universal and the Newsday.
