Larger pupil

by liz0629, Mar 25, 2009 02:58PM
I went for an eye check up on Monday, two different drops were placed in my eyes to dilate the pupils (2PM), I noticed today that my left pupil is a little bit smaller then the right one.  Is this normal?

I suspect the drops are wearing off faster in one eye than the other.  Hopefully it will even out in a day or so.  If there continues to be a difference in size after tommorow you should call your ophthalmologist and perhaps there is a pupil abnormalilty that was not mentioned.
