I mean like this:
As far as I can tell, all characters, share this trait.

No matter what their explanation is, it's probably just one design attribute used to try to separate the obvious inherited styles from the Simpsons and every clone that came after it. If it were me, I might have drawn them that way to symbolize the chaos of the show and the characters in it– Kai QingSep 30, 2017 at 0:02

The creators discuss the unusual drawing of the pupils in the video below. In short, it's 100% deliberate and is a holdover from the original short film that spawned the series, where the eyes (and the heads) were very sloppily drawn.
When the new animated series was made and the lines were dramatically cleaned up, the artists wanted something of the old pilot episode to survive.
