Can I drive myself home after my eye examination?
We recommend using public transportation rather than driving to your comprehensive eye examination, whether or not pupil dilation is planned. Dilating drops can cause glare and blurred near vision for several hours, making driving unsafe. Even without dilation, certain tests or eye conditions can temporarily affect your vision. For your safety, it is best to arrange another way to travel.
