A member asked:
Is it normal that one of my pupils dilated after using visine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not really: There are several different types of visine . Some contain a mild vasocontrictor (labeled"gets the red out"). If your eyes were sensitive to this chemical alone, and you applied it to one eye only ( or got more in one eye) then you might see some enlargement of the pupil on that side. Of course the visine could have become contaminated with a pupillary dilator. Consider also horner's syndrome.
