I'mma open up a bag of worms with my botchy edit of the goat eyes.

What I fixed: Horizontal eyes rotate according to the horizon. Which means the eyes on our fellow dragons also should rotate, no matter how their head is tilted.
Here's some image you can find via a simple google search how eyes on real animals rotate no matter how they move their head.

This is just an observation. I don't suddenly expect the staff to fix the artwork on the dragons to remain anatomically correct according to what the real world dictates.
Also consider: Spirals measure their eye rotations as RPM - Revolutions per minute.

Yeah, it's some strange stuff. Also the same thing happens in our eyes, though not nearly as noticeable because our pupils are round and they dont rotate nearly as far.
Not sure what slit eyes can do rotation-wise, if they can even rotate at all.

human eyes can rotate the same way too, you just can't tell because our pupils are circles

makes me wonder what our vision woul look like when we tilt ourheads if our eyes didn't rotate like this

yes. this.
also, i never knew goat eyes rotated like that before. the more you know i guess

Um
I didn't like goat eyes as it is I find them unnerving
So thaaaaanks for making them worse

Horizontal pupils will rotate in prey animals that have their heads down for grazing. Not in predators.
The rotation is needed for prey, who spend large amounts of time with their heads down grazing. Predators wouldn't have ever needed to evolve that, since their heads are usually level with the ground while hunting. Our dragons are predators, so the rotation is equally as unnecessary.
Exception being Tundras, since they canonically graze and don't eat meat. You could argue their eyes would need to rotate, but my guess is they don't here due to art constraints, it's easier to see the pupil if it goes across the eye at the longest point.
Horizontal pupils have evolved independently in many animals like sheep, some mustelids, mongoose, frogs, and snakes! The general consensus is that for the predators that have them, they're also prey themselves, and benefit from this extremely wide field of vision. That would explain why larger mustelids like wolverines have round pupils while smaller ones like ferrets have horizontal ones. They forage rather than ambush hunt, so the lost of some sharpness in their vision isn't going to impact them much.

Nobody wants to tell you why discipline is so important. Discipline is the strongest form of self-love. It is ignoring current pleasures for bigger rewards to come. It's loving yourself enough to give yourself everything you've ever wanted.
