FAQs
Is dilation required?
Florida law requires all Board Certified Optometric Physicians to include pupillary dilation as a part of a NEW Comprehensive Eye Exam.
How long does dilation last?
The pupils will remain dilated or larger than normal for 2 – 6 hours. During this time your near vision may be slightly blurry, and you will experience increased light sensitivity.
What is dilation?
Dilating your pupil lets more light into your eye — just like opening a door lets light into a dark room. Dilation helps your eye doctor check for many common eye problems, including diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, and age-related macular degeneration.
