Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Reduced adaptation to light can negatively affect safety as it may impair the client's ability to see in varying light conditions, such as when transitioning from a bright area to a darker area. Brow pain, ciliary spasm, and headache are all possible adverse effects of carbachol, but they are not as likely to directly affect safety.
