Are Distorted And Blurred Vision Due To Instil Eye Drops?

A walk-in clinc Dr. prescribed Instil drops as I had a very red right eye which he identified as being the start of a bacterial eye infection (started drops of Friday AM). The redness went to the left as well by Friday night. Both eyes seem to have a blur/cloud and my vision is distorted. My vision was just tested 2 weeks ago and it was fine, could this be from the drops. (in the morning both eyes are sticky like there was leaking. Is this normal or should I try to see my eye doctor?
