Dilated pupils
I have been on Methadone for almost 2 years now, and I started my taper from 180 mg about 4 months ago. I have always had dilated pupils though, even the days where I would take my full dose all at once or even double dose. I know this isn't a horrible side effect or anything and deep down, it really doesn't matter, but it just made me curious if anyone else has noticed their pupils also dilate on Methadone? Even before my taper they were like this! Opioids are obviously well known to constrict pupils, if anything, so I've always been curious as to why mine dilate. When I was on Fentanyl and Heroin, they were very constricted. The only time my pupils would dilate was when I was withdrawaling, so when I first started at the clinic, I kept going up because I thought I was in withdrawal. But no matter how high I went, they wouldn't constrict. I eventually just went back down to 180 mg and stabilized, and just decided to deal with the dilation. Has anyone else experienced this? Do you think it's just because of my high tolerance to Opioids? Could it maybe be because I have light blue eyes too? I don't take any stimulants or any other medication that could cause dilated pupils. The only reason I'm asking is because one of my coworkers commented on my pupils the other day and asked if I was rolling because of how big they were😅 It made me super self-conscious, especially because I have never been into uppers or psychedelics.
