I'm 66 yrs old and I've noticed recently over the last several yrs, when I get my eye exam I'm just exhausted for the rest of the day and then I sleep all day. I feel medicated too, like someone injected a drug into my veins!!! It's damn creepy!! Here it is Weds.....and I'm still a bit tired out. I kept thinking it was cuz' I have Fibromyalgia?? Apparently, this is not the reason.....weird, VERY weird!!!<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9175362385039466640.post-49347147238816607872020-05-18T17:31:45.988-04:002020-05-18T17:31:45.988-04:00They do make me drowsy.

At first it was ju the normal blurry and being blind by the sun, but then I became extremely exhausted. I had to take a nap before going to work after my exam But I had to leave after a couple of hrs because I was so tired and felt high kinda stumbling on my feet. Went home took another 45 min nap and had to do some errands. After picking up my kids and getting them feed from Burger King and had to go to bed. I could no longer take care of my kids and went to bed in the clothes I had on. It was the most bizarre feeling I've ever had I felt like I was drugged. It took two days to recover and I'm finally feeling better.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11757101063705041483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9175362385039466640.post-7234137401401451862013-01-04T07:54:01.126-05:002013-01-04T07:54:01.126-05:00@ Wendy: That totally makes sense!

I tend to get tired eyes too - just the eyes though.<br />Kelly, ask if they have the drops to make your eyes normal again in a shorter time afterwards - I don't know whether they give you the same stuff for dilating your pupils in the US, but in Germany you can get something to reverse the effect more quickly.Verahttp://prickedfingerinthepie.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9175362385039466640.post-33004264973583387602013-01-02T15:58:02.055-05:002013-01-02T15:58:02.055-05:00I get so sleepy the rest of the day too.
