Guest guest Posted March 18, 2001 Report Share Posted March 18, 2001 Has anyone had any experience with eye drops from the opthamologist ? My sons eyes cross and he wears glasses which correct the crossing BUT he stopped wearing his glasses a few months ago and so his Dr. prescribed eye drops that blur his vision so he will need to wear his glasses to see better. The last ntime we did this he has a horrible react for three days His pupils were dilated and he rocked and banged his head til it wore off and he never wore the glasses the whole time!! His eye are getting worse and the dr. wants to try the drops again. help cathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 18, 2001 Report Share Posted March 18, 2001 Do the drops have atropine in them? is allergic to atropine. Within 15 minutes of putting them in his temp. shot up to 104, he walked like a drunk. Took 24 hours to wear off. & Garry, parents of (10 ds), (9 ds), JJ (7 ds/autism/celiac), (6 ds/ADHD/Celiac), and Esther (4 ds).

Guest guest Posted March 18, 2001 Report Share Posted March 18, 2001 Do they have thimerisol in them??? That is what would concern me and supposedly some eye drops stii do. If so, then he was exposed to more mercury. Re: bad reaction to eye drops > Has anyone had any experience with eye drops from the opthamologist ?
