Can you still go to school with slowly dilated pupils?

Slow dilation of the pupils can be used for school, but activities that require prolonged eye use, such as writing or reading, are generally not recommended. Slow pupil dilation mainly refers to the use of 1% atropine in the eyes, used three times a day for three consecutive days, until the fourth day when follow-up optometry can be carried out, and its efficacy lasts for about 2~3 weeks. During the time frame of efficacy, users may experience ciliary muscle paralysis, pupil dilation, photophobia, and blurred vision. For children who need to go to school, they can go to school and attend classes, but may have problems such as blurred vision. After slow pupil dilation, they can go to school, but they are affected by blurred vision, etc. For the duration of the effect of the dilating medication, they should try to minimize their homework, reading, drawing, etc., and should pay attention to wearing sunglasses to protect their eyes when they are outdoors. There is a period of blurred vision after the slow dilation of pupils, parents are advised to let their school-age children have slow dilation of pupils during the summer or winter vacations as much as possible, so as not to affect the children’s normal school life.
