Suggest Treatment For Blurred Vision And Swollen Eyes

HI, Today I had multiple episodes where my eyeball felt as those it was being squeezed in a vice. This feeling lasted about 10 seconds and during that time my vision was 100% blurred, I couldnt see anything! It happened 4 times in a span of about an hour. It might be important to mention that I had an eye appt. for glasses yesterday and my eyes were dilated. After the incidences stopped, by eyes felt (mostly my left eye) like it was severely swollen (although it wasnt) almost like I was stung by a bee. Please help.

Ophthalmologist 's  Response
all the symptoms were for effect of mydriatic action. if strong mydriatic like atropine is used then symptoms will be more problematic. washing will not help. your accommodation has been paralyzed. avoid reading or focusing to near object. you will feel normal when its action is nutralised. it will be painful when you are exposed to bright light.
