Anyone Have Allergies to Dilation Drops? Posted: 02-16-06 04:25am
I went home one day from the eye doctor
after noticing when he dilated my eyes
they felt numb, and that night I had a
splitting headache. When I woke up the
next morning one pupil was fully dilated
and the other was the size of a pinpoint,
and my splitting headache hadn't ceased.
Has anyone ever been diagnosed with being
allergic to the eye drops they use to
dilate your eyes? I've heard it's like 1
in 100,000, but I have it :| to make it
worse my eyesight isn't that great to
begin with, so it makes me wonder if this
will somehow affect my lens prescription.
