You would think that excess dopamine made your pupils bigger but it is in fact a common side effect of antipsychotic medications.
I think it would be hard to make them smaller, and if you where able to, the medicine used to do that will have side effects on its own, and the spiral of chemicals is in spin.
But maybe there is a way that I haven't heard of?

to make you pupils smaller is called miosis (constricted pupil) usally opiates cause significant constriction, stimualnts and alcohol cause pupil dialation which makes your eyes more big and usally you tell if there speeding, but i found somethings on reducing your pupils in eyes
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miosis
these are psychological techniques to shrink or dilate your eyes...

Just curious, but why do you ask? Do things seem to bright for you?

i think its anti-cholingergic overload, from the neuroleptics.

I think pilocarpine constricts pupils. Not sure if you can use it long-term though.
