Blimey it`s bright

Not very long back from my diabetes retinal photos-those drops make you go so `bug eyed` I`m staying inside for a bit.

Good idea to rest your eyes for a while, OG......

Re: Blimey it`s bright

I loathe those dilating drops! I get a terrible headache trying to read or use the computer until they'e worn off! Wear shades outside on the way home; it helps.

Re: Blimey it`s bright

My study/computer room faces East so the sun is over the back of the house by now-I did squint a bit earlier though

Re: Blimey it`s bright

Have a lie down and rest from the puter

Re: Blimey it`s bright

I tend to walk home so that by the time I am home the effects have worn off.
Reaction Lens help if it is a bright day.

Re: Blimey it`s bright

Hope your eyes are back to normal today OG.....

Re: Blimey it`s bright

Wow, AB, that;s either a VERY long walk home or your ophthalmologist uses a different type of dilator! I usually get my drops about 1:30 and my eyes aren't back to normal until about 6:30.

I have transition lenses too, love them!

Re: Blimey it`s bright

I dont know what he uses but they take 20 mins to take effect and then wear off in about 1 hour. It is 3 miles from where I live. All up hill.

Re: Blimey it`s bright

Ha! Mine take 20 min to dilate too, but hours to wear off; when I see Dr. L in September I'll ask if there is another type I could get that doesn't last so $*&!!*) long!
