How long should it take my dialated eyes to return to normal?

Question

I had my eyes dilated yesterday pre-op for LASIK surgery. It has been 28 hours now and my eyes are still dilated and really dry. My eye doctor told me that these drops are strong but I never expected them to last this long. At what point should I be concerned?

Answer 1

It depends on what drop was used.  Can take anywhere from 2 hours to 2 days, depending on the drop.

Call the eye doctor and ask how long it should have lasted and whether you should be concerned.

Answer 2

Oh i got mine dialated. they take about 2 days i would say. maybe a little less dont worry my eye dr said it willl wear away in 2 hrs and it never did
