How long do dilated pupils from atropine sulfate ophthalmic last?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
4-7 days: Atropine is a strong and persistent dilator of the pupil. It will last 3-7 days in most depending upon the biochemistry of the pupil and the color of the iris (darker is less long and blue eyes last the longest).
