How long does eye dilation last after having iritis, i stopped mydtilate over a week ago and is still dilated. dr has no answer. could it b permanent?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Less than 1 week: Atropine should not last more than a week. HomAtropine and scopolamine just a few days. If its still dilated without any other symptoms then give it a few days. If it is still dilated at that point i would do a work up for abnormal pupil.
