What Causes Fainting After Using Eye Drops?

I had went to my eye dr. yesterday and had drops put in my eyes for them to see my eye pressure. Last night after I got home, it seemed like my eyes wouldn t move and I almost passed out. I don t know if I had a reaction to the drops or not. I want to the local ER today and they thought that I had an ocular migraine. I ve had these drops put in my eyes before and never had any issues.
