hello all, i have a question about pupil dilation actually a couple. If I were to shoot a bag tonite and then go out and have a few beers, would the beer make my pupils get bigger (like to a normal size)? would alch make pinpointed pupils bigger? for that matter is there ANYTHING at all to make pinpointed pupils get bigger? any exercises i could do? anything... you guys get the point. let me know
 
I don't see alcohol making pinpoint pupils any bigger the opposite would probably happen. Stimulant drugs like Cocaine, and Amphetamines, will give you big pupils. Same with Cannabis and hallucinogenic drugs like LSD, shrooms and Ketamine.

this is my tell also. I have blue eyes and when I used to do heroin, my eyes were always pinned. my wife (then girlfriend) would always know instantly.

unfortunately, I never found anything to counteract it that worked and was also practical. weed never worked for me, not strong enough imo. yeah, coke and amps do work, but how often does a dopehead have extra cash for an "anti-pupil constriction" remedy on top of his daily habit? plus, you don't always wanna do coke after a good shot/line/pill of opiates. or sometimes you can't be fucked up either but you want the pupils to get back to normal.

all I'm trying to say is, good luck bro. if you find something let us know about it too.
 
Yea once you do a huge shot of dope not much will make you look sober to others except doing stimulant drugs or psychedelics. Even Caffeine could work too. Or a shot of narcan ha but that wouldnt be so fun. I don't know of any exercises to make your pupils bigger either.

Why do you care so much anyways?? I never found heroin to make me look really fucked up in front of people unless j did way too much at once. Part of the big reason i did heroin is because no one can tell your on it and because I could function really well on it. Just don't do a massive shot if you are going out somewhere like the bar. What kind of a person would want to go to the bar nodding out anyways?? Isn't it kind of embarrassing to be slumped over drooling in a bar full of drunk people having fun?? Do you think girls are attracted to that type of stuff?

Once just to see what would happen I rubbed a bit of cocaine in my left eye to see if it would dilate my left pupil. To my surprise it actually made it noticeably bigger as my ex and her friend both noticed that my right and left eye had different pupil sizes. Just a thought…..
 
some people aren't so lucky Doc. even at my maintenance dose my pupils would pin. if I was high even a little bit I was already fucked, I would never be slumped over nodded out like that, but my pupils looked like I did 3 bags in one shot.

also some people are aware of pupil constriction and will be LOOKING for it, like a wife or girlfriend or concerned parent. IME the people that are the most successful at hiding their pupil constriction have brown eyes.


EDIT: OP they do have drops that dilate pupils, but only place I've ever seen them is at an ophthalmologists office. so maybe go get your eyes checked, tell them you got something in it, they will dilate the pupils with the drops. maybe you can swipe a bottle without them noticing. once again, good luck.
 
Haha I remember my buddy went to the eye doctor blasted out if his mind and the doctor didn't know what was wring with his pupils until he finally said "I'm high" haha priceless

My pupils are always very big, regardless of what I use or have used.
At night it seems that I´m on coke or had a lot to drink. It´s annoying sometimes.
And this happens even when I use methadone. Of course it decreases a bit, but not sufficiently.
I guess there is nothing we can do about it.
Once I had gone to an Ophthalmologist and his nurse thought I had my pupils dilation already done!!
 
Once a friend announced loudly when I came in the room, "Hey, I know those eyes!" I usually notice it on people, too, especially at night.

Wonder what a speedball would do? (Besides feel great).

Pupils two different sizes mean trouble.
 
Careful with that I would mix drugs that constricted your pupils and ones that dialated them and would end up with CRAZY looking eyes my pupils would not stop getting huge then tiny and I'd eventually end up with one pupil pin pointed and one huge. Definitely made me look even more fucked up. Just wear sunglasses dude :)
 
Going to the bar on dope sounds awful.

I'd be so pissed.

Anyway is there some reason you want to not have pinned eyes?
Sounds kind of pointless.

And as someone else said, just wear sunglasses.

Having one pupil huge and another tiny is a sign of brain damage. That's not good at all.
 
It would only happen when I mixed constricters and dialaters so I'm not concerned it hasn't happened since

Each pupil actually responds to light independently. So pupils of different sizes can be a sign of brain problems, but it's not a foolproof diagnostic. Having one pupil bigger than the other and no other presenting mental symptoms is something you can brush off.

If on the other hand, one pupil is fixed and non-responsive to light (or too big/small), and there's weakness/numbness on that side of the body, then you may want to be concerned. Or if the anisocoria appears suddenly accompanied with a headache, nausea, weakness, etc.

wiki-anisocoria said:
Anisocoria is usually a benign finding, unaccompanied by other symptoms (physiological anisocoria). Old face photographs of patients often help to diagnose and establish the type of anisocoria.

It should be considered an emergency if a patient develops acute onset anisocoria. These cases may be due to brain mass lesions which cause oculomotor nerve palsy. Anisocoria in the presence of confusion, decreased mental status, severe headache, or other neurological symptoms can forewarn a neurosurgical emergency. This is because a hemorrhage, tumor or another intracranial mass can enlarge to a size where the third cranial nerve (CN III) is compressed, which results in uninhibited dilatation of the pupil on the same side as the lesion.
 
You could jack some of those pupil dilating eye drops that eye surgeons use (not saying how probable that would be but still just throwing it out there) and then just put like an eight of a drop or as little as you could so it only dilates them a slightttttt amount so you can still see.... ehh again hypothetically here doubt this is sound at all just addressing the claim if it was at ALL possible to cure this unfortunate side effect (although alot of girls told me i looked hotter cuz they could see more of my eyes... didn't know WHY my eyes were like that so that probably aided in the positive reception but still not ALL bad in all situations ahahahaha
 
You can't just take pupil dilating eye drops to counteract opiate pupil constriction. From memory these are often atropine, scopolamine or some other anticholinergic (I think?)
Doing this sort of thing seems like a gamble with complications and eye problems. Is it really worth risking, in order to hide your use from people?
Seems unsafe.

Haha - I was about to say, I believe in older days people (women) used to rub datura / angel's trumpet / etc lightly near their eyes to get big, beautiful pupils. Doubt it's too safe though.
