Eye dilation

Eye dilation

Years ago my eyes were accidentally dilated; and I had an allergic reaction--my eyes remained dilated for 3 weeks  eEven after the doctor trorf to counteract the solution.  I was told then never to have my eyes dilated again; however, at my age and due to health issues, I need to have a thorough eye exam.  Unfortunately, the office that had my records was sold and all records destroyed so I have no idea the liquid or strength used.  I am terrified to have this done again, because I remember the fear I experienced.  Could you please offer any any suggestions?

Dear mc9319,

I would recommend that you speak with your eyeMD about this issue and discuss possible solutions.  It is possible that a longer acting dilating was given.
