Starry, starry eyes

Yesterday, in prep of getting cataracts removed, the Ophthalmologist "super dilated" my eyes. The results were amazing with street lights and car lights. When I got home, the Christmas trees were jumping at me with beautiful "star" effects.
I grabbed my camera and made photos at f22 to try and capture the effect. Although they did look "starry" like, my eyes were seeing things much brighter and bigger than I could capture with my camera.
Fortunately, the effect hasn't worn off yet. I would love to find a way to keep it forever. It really is too neat to lose.

Oh, that would be great! It has been more than 24 hours and I still have the star effect on every light. Really cool.

I've tried to find those drops as an over-the-counter purchase, but now luck so far. :D
If you have an old cheap lens, you could try damaging the outer glass. A hammer and sandpaper can work wonders.

Did you get the surgery in just one eye and did you get a lens implant. If yes, have you compared something that is supposed to be white with each eye alone. When I did that what looked white in the un-lens-implant eye looked quite dirty yellow in the lens-implanted eye. Also, when the job was done I could get along without glasses except for special situations. You are going to get much more enjoyment out of your photography now. Good luck.

I had that starry effect for a long time, but it eventually went away.
