Brief Answer:
no it is not

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thank you for contacting HCM.Pupillary dilation after wearing contact is not a matter of concern. If you are having good vision with contact lenses, and you find them comfortable to wear and if there is no redness or itching in the eye, you can enjoy wearing your contact lenses. Please don't forget to remove your contact lenses before going to sleep. Also don't forget to hygienically wear the contact lenses because at the point you may get an eye infection which are really bad. I hope it helps. Thank you
