Hi doctors. I saw an ophthalmologist who dilated my eyes. I want to go to a different/second ophthalmologist. How long do I need to wait for the dilated eyes to back to normal and for it to be safe just in case the 2nd doctor wants to dilate my eyes?
PLEASE HELP: I went to the eye doctor yesterday and they gave me the eye drops that dilate your pupils. They both constricted and went back to normal over a few hours. I just woke up this morning and now one pupil is bigger than the other?
