1 pupil dialated

by khop1982, May 18, 2009 08:17AM
I have had one pupil dilated for almost 2 days now.  I am having vision problems in the related eye and feel unsteady because I cannot see properly.  I did put some over the counter eye drops into the eye before this happened but that has been almost 48 hours ago now.  I am planning to call my GP this morning and try to get an appointment.  Could this happen because the eye drops were contaminated?  I would have thought infection of the eye to be a more likely result of contaminated drops.

Over-the-counter eye drops should not cause a dilation.  See an ophthalmologist.  Find one on AAO.org.

It would be a waste of time to see a G.P.
