Routine eye exams often require the use of dilating drops to widen your pupils, allowing your optometrist to get a clear view of your retina and other internal structures of the eye. While necessary for a thorough examination, dilation can leave patients dealing with lingering side effects, such as light sensitivity, blurred vision, and difficulty focusing for several hours after their appointment. At Gregor Eye Care, we offer an FDA-approved solution to help reverse these effects - Ryzumvi eye drops.
 

What Is Ryzumvi?

Ryzumvi is a prescription eye drop specifically designed to counteract pharmacologically-induced pupil dilation. It is currently the only product of its kind approved by the FDA for this purpose. Ryzumvi is unique because it works on the receptors responsible for keeping the pupil dilated, helping to return your eyes to their normal state more quickly and comfortably.
 

How Does Ryzumvi Work?

When your eyes are dilated for an exam, medications are used to stimulate certain muscles in the iris that keep the pupil open. Ryzumvi works by temporarily attaching to specific receptors in these muscles, encouraging the pupil to return to its regular size. This process targets both the muscles that open the pupil and those that control its closing, making the reversal process more efficient.
 

What to Expect After Using Ryzumvi

One of the main benefits of Ryzumvi is its rapid action. Most patients will notice a reduction in pupil size within 30 minutes of using the drops. The full effect is typically seen in about 60 to 90 minutes and can last for up to 24 hours. This means you can get back to your daily activities sooner, without the bothersome side effects of lingering dilation.
 

Why Consider Dilation Reversal?

For many people, dilated eyes can make driving, working, or simply going outside into bright light uncomfortable and inconvenient. If you have concerns about managing your day after an eye exam, Ryzumvi offers a way to minimize downtime and discomfort.
 

Who Can Benefit from Ryzumvi?

Ryzumvi is ideal for patients who:

• Have busy schedules and need to return to work or drive shortly after their exam

• Experience significant discomfort from light sensitivity or blurred vision after dilation

• Prefer not to wait hours for their eyes to return to normal

• Have previously avoided eye exams due to the inconvenience of dilation

Not everyone will require Ryzumvi, but for those who do, it offers peace of mind and added convenience.
