Is Frequent Blinking And Burning Of Eyes An Symptom Of Atropine?

sure - my son (age 6) had his biannual eye exam with dilation. (Twice a year because of brain damage at birth). One week after the exam he is suddenly complaining of burning, and is frequently blinking and rubbing his eyes. (The exam was near perfect, slight stigmatism, and possible mild periferal vision issues that can not be confirmed until he is older.) Is this a possible adverse, delayed reaction to the atropine?
