Wait: Most likely the drug is still working. If the eye remains dilated beyond 1-2 weeks after stopping the drop, then it may be attached to the lens.

Variable: You have had a moderately lengthy application of a powerful eye dilator. This will wear off depending in part on your biochemisty and also the color of you iris - much slower in lighter colored irises. It would be very rare for the dilation to be permanent so just hang in there.
