Just started using Atropine eye drops for lazy eye treatment. What are your experiences with Isopto Atropine 1/2% Ophth Soln?

I've just started using Atropine eye drops to treat my lazy eye, and I'm having a hard time with them. The drops burn and sting when I put them into the eye. Plus I was a bit freaked out about how dilated my eyes got. Has anyone else had to use these? What were your experiences? Did you have side effects?

I used these for a few weeks when I had a condition called iritis, and they caused some blurred vision and dizziness. I ended up taking a few days off work because it was so disorienting.

Ever tried driving with these? You don't want to be doing that. You won't be able to see!

I used them for eye exams, and I have to say, walking around with dilated pupils is an interesting experience, I felt like I was seeing out of a fishbowl.

My son had to use these as part of his lazy eye treatment and he had a weird side effect - his skin got super dry and itchy
