It should not happen and I can't explain why you encountered this rare adverse effect which could be called an idiosyncratic reaction. It is absolutely abnormal.

Definitely not NORMAL. Most ophthalmologists use some combination of tropicamide, phenylephrine and cyclopentolate. No combination that I am aware of would cause 90 minute paralysis. See your internist.
