Besides with anything more than 5-6mm you would be loosing brightness as the average persons pupil dilation is around 5 mm or less in adults. Therefore if you have an exit pupil of 12 mm then only one quarter of the light will enter your pupil (1/r square law, ie for every doubling of radius the intensity will be 1/4)
