I recently had an eye exam where I was given Fluorescein 10% Op Inj, 5ml. The injection itself was quick and not too painful, but afterward, my urine turned bright yellow. The doctor said it was normal, but I wanted to check in with others who have had this experience. Is this a common side effect? How long does it usually last? And are there any other side effects I should be aware of? The doctor mentioned the possibility of yellow skin, but that hasn't happened yet. Any advice on how to manage potential side effects would also be appreciated.
