Dilated pupil

Hi there,

Just a quick question that I'm concerned about.  I had to up my dose of Epilim another 200mg perday (for seizures) and my right pupil has become noticeably more dilated than the left one.  What does this mean? And should I be worried?  Thanks heaps...

Thanks for your feedback, I'll ring my GP today and try to get in. I have a slight annoying headache that's been hanging around since the pupil change, and this morning it's still much larger than the other one.  Thanks again for your help!

Cheers

You should see your doctor because they are concerned about pupils being unequal. They will probably check to make sure your eyes are reactive to light also. I know it's  hard not to worry, but don't. The doctor will get to the bottom of it.  Good luck. RN626
