I had my one week post op appt in which my eye was dilated. My eye feels a little irritated (or something). Is this to be expected? Thank you!

    Dilation drops are always annoying until they wear off.

    I have not had irritation after a dilation.

    Ask your doctor's office what the three numbers were for that eye.

    Thanks Trilemma. Fortunately the irritation went away after a few hours.
