Naphcon A and dialation

I put some of this in my eye after doing yard work as my eye felt like it needed it. now my right eye is very dialated after using it. I am wondering if any one has experienced an eye drop like this to dialate the eye. I am wondering if I might have put too many drops (about 4 ro 5)

Just to let you know--in some people especially contact lens wearers, very light colored iris (blud, green, gray) or with a irritated or scratched cornea the ingredients in some over the counter eye drops can dilate the pupil. Naphcon A is one of them.

I am sure it was the Naphcon A. It has taken almost 4 hours before my eye return back to normal.
