optometry, dilated eyes, eye dilation drops, why eye doctors dilate the eyes
Absolutely informative and this is exactly what I’ve been looking for. Someone who gives the terminology and explains in detail and who knows there are folks out there who want to educate themselves on what goes on within the eye!!!
You are so informative!
EXCELLENT! BEST ONE ONLINE!
This channel is so underrated!!!
I've been getting my eyes dilated since 1995 and I've always wondered how this works. Thank you for such a good, informative video!\
Does it hurt? Does it make your vision extremely blurry?
Thanks for explaining things in
Love your videos !!! Thank you !!!
Thanks for watching!
This is such a heavy topic in our industry, tho you just NAILED it: at this point in time, that shouldn't come as a surprise, ikr, but hey I feel like it is worth reiterating that. #hatsoff
I enjoyed the content and the bloopers made it entertaining!
I had my eyes dilated with cyclopentolate and the guy overdosed me causing drops to work instantly instead of waiting 20-30 mins. It took about 3 days for pupils to go back to normal despite having very dark brown eyes. I still have eye issues since these drops, discoloured whites, capilleries are showing and dark viens have appeared. I get discomfort since and odd sharp pains. Apparently they cant see any damage but its obviously not right.
He should never have put so much in so he didnt have to wait. One drop per eye is suffient, ive had it done before.
Also i had rapid heart rate after drops 2 days in a row. He told me there are no risks or side effects. He is a scum bag 😠
I may have to end my life if my eyes dont get better. Im not living with his stupidity. Eyes are one of the most important parts of your body.
How's your eye
Even i hot my eyes dilated....i don't which drops assistant put in my eyes... But since then I have dry eyes , streaks around light, light sensitivity.....i wish i didn't went there that day😭
This whole eye industry is big scam 😡😠
@@aanand4544and now does the side effects goes ?
Thanks very much for this presentation!
This one was for you!!!! 💥
@@EyeSchoolwithDrD Thank you very much!
Where can we get the sunglasses that you just put on ?
Dr D 🧐... Is it possible for an optiometrist to measure the correct power of eye without dilation as some of them say it is not required to dilate to measure the power .
First timer. Found your channel by accident. Question: have you done a video on inflammation of the optic nerves? I had limited peripheral vision in my left eye, went in for an exam with a MD Opthamology who said the optic nerves behind both eyes were inflamed. Only 20% vision, the following week, GCA surgery, Negative thankfully, (2 new scars). Haven’t driven since (3 yrs). Saw all the specialists, Neurologist prescribed Diamox (can’t take it, I sleep 15 hrs a day). Where to turn now? Thank you. “J”
Hey how was your condition now
Mam y should we hv to close the eyes for a while after putting T plus mam ?
Hi doc I'm watching from the Philippines I use progressive eyeglasses I want to change my pair of lens to transition lens
You can get your progressives with transitions for sure!
Hey! I take atropine 0.05% for eye floaters. Would it be safe for me to go outside for 1-2 hours without sunglasses? I always wear them but I will be in Hawaii and don't want to wear during a wedding ceremony. Thanks!
Wat is the name of that eyes dilation druge
Thats cool you can patch the eye without actual patch if I got that right🤙
Yes! Chemical patching!
My pupils are huge
The eye (or, ducts)) can secrete urine? I love your videos . Helps me to have more questions for my opthalmologist
Thank you and thanks for watching! No, the eye/ducts don't secrete urine. I was talking about the autonomic nervous system automating body activities LIKE tears, digestion, urination etc. Didn't mean to be confusing! Think of eye dilation as being controlled by the same system that controls the other automatic things in our bodies like urination & digestion.
like .. very much
How long does it take for 1% atropine to wear off
I have used it and it's my day 15 i can't live without black glasses in home and at night also in my room please tell me how long it takes to undilate it
Mam can you please reply?is dilating drops are steroid?my dr dilated my eyes 4 times in last 3 months bcoz i have retinak holes.can you please reply me is there any problems of dilating eyes more often?also is dilating eyes drop's are steroid?
Dilation drops don’t have any steroid in them and when your doctor is evaluating retinal holes dilating every time is the standard of care and won’t cause any problems
@@EyeSchoolwithDrD thank you so much.i was really worried about this.
mam one doubt please reply if you can .iam only 18 .retinal holes are quite common right?.but retinal detachment is extremely lrare.there is a lot of people who have retinal holes and they don't even know.so that means retinal holes not always cause retinal detachment.so the laser surgery necessary?
Is it normal for optometrist to use three different eye drops at the same time to dilate eyes?
Yes...likely proparicaine (numbing), then phenylephrine and tropicamide. that gives the absolute best dilation for every day clinical practice
@@EyeSchoolwithDrD Thank you so much for the response. Appreciate it.
@@EyeSchoolwithDrDis it common to do only two drops of numbing and two drops of tropicamide? 1%. what's the difference between.5 and 1. Are they used for different eye color?
I have used atropine 1% and it's day 15 my pupil is still dilated I can not concentrate without black glasses please tell how much time it takes more to undilate
