Just got prescribed Cyclogyl 1% eye drops - what's the experience like?

I was just prescribed Cyclogyl 1% eye drops for an upcoming eye surgery. Has anyone had experience with these? What should I expect in terms of side effects and how long does the blurriness and light sensitivity last? Also, any tips for managing these side effects?

You should be fine, just follow the doctor's instructions. Some people do get side effects, but they are usually minor. If you experience anything severe, go to the ER.

Just a heads up, these are nothing to joke around with. If you experience any severe symptoms, go to the ER immediately. These can have serious side effects.

Just had my eye exam with Cyclogyl. I had to walk around with my sunglasses indoors. Stuff was super blurry, but vision returned to normal that evening.

I had them for a cataract surgery and they did the job as needed. Always follow the instructions of the doc. It helps if you can have someone with you, just in case.
