Question I have had bilateral laser iridotomy for narrow angle glaucoma. Is it safe to have your eyes dilated after you have had this procedure or is this why the procedure is done, so that you can have your eyes dilated. Thank you. Maxine
Answer Dear Maxine,
The eye doctor decides to dilate or not dilate when you visit his office and the eye pressure is checked.
yes, we have dilated some patients using a short acting dilating eye drop and not repeating th use of the same to hasten the dilation.
However, please let your optometrist/ ophthalmologist take this call.
Hope this helps,
Regards,
Dr Anand Shroff, MS (OPHTH), FICS
