Pupil Dialation In One Eye? Posted: 03-23-05 15:29pm
I have a co-worker that had one that will
dialate and it really freaks her out. She
went to a specialist who told her it was a
form of a migraine headache, but she
doesn't have a headache when this happens.
Has this happened to any of you and if
so,what's the deal?

I had the same thing happen to me with one
eye dialating. It's been (i think) over
a year and a half ago since it happened.
It wasn't always the same eye and it
happened several times over a few month
period. I went to a specialist and never
did get any answers or ideas as to why it
was happening. Did your friend ever find
anything out?

Hey, thanks for the reply!! It has
happened a few more times but it is always
the same eye. We work for a doctor's
office so I asked one of the drug reps.
Who has migraine medicine and she said she
had heard of that before. You would think
working for a doctor would be more helpful
but it seems like they don't treat the
employees are "real patients". When we
try to talk to them, they will say "ah,
you'll be alright...Don't worry".
We had another girl that the same thing
happened to her eye and it was becasue she
had came in contact with something and
then touched her eye and then it started
to dilate. I can't remember what it was
but if I can remember, i'll ask one of the
nurses tomorrow and let you know.
Thanks again for writing!!

Are you working with anti-nausa drugs?
I work with kids with special needs and I
managed to get one of the druge we give
them in my eye, it dialated my eye for 72+
hours. I think ti was called hyacin or
something similar. I was sent all over
the place for tests! Was not fun

I was just out doing some yard work and
when I came in the house my eye started to
feel blurry, and when I looked in the
mirror I saw my pupil was very large, it
sure did scare me, now i'm wondering if I
got into something or did I have a
migrain, can anyone tell me if this has
happened to them. Thanks dor

Over Dialation of the Pupil of Only One Eye Posted: 10-25-05 17:28pm
I have this problem. I have also
experienced flushing and swelling of the
same side of my face, sometimes
accompanying a headache and other times
not. When my head hurts usually it hurts
to even open my eyes. I have felt alot
of pressure at times which also caused a
draining in my ears.
Please reply

One Dilated Pupil Posted: 01-17-06 21:00pm
I am a 26 yr old female...About 3 years
ago, out of the blue , I noticed the
vision in my right eye was a bit off, I
ignored it for a couple of hours, until I
passed a mirror and saw that the pupil was
so completely dilated, I could no longer
see the color in my eye, only black....I
went to the eye dr that night, who looked
behind my eye..Asked me the usual
questions...Any new meds, did you bump
your head, any pain? The answers were all
no..It took about 2 weeks to return to
normal, however, since then, that pupil
has always been larger, and from time to
time, it enlargens without cause..I have a
history of migraine headaches( for about
10 yrs now), cancer, and rheumatoid
arthritus.....Does anyone have any
opinions? Thank you!!!!
