I wonder if it's something I should worry about in relation to the side effects of the eye drops (e.g. glaucoma crisis).

Yes, typically the side effects of eye drops will dissipate once you stop using them. It is possible for some side effects to occur if the drops are absorbed into the bloodstream, but this can be minimized by keeping your eye closed after applying the drops and lightly pressing on the inner corner of the eye to block the tear duct. The product will be completely eliminated from your body within 24 hours, so any effects should disappear relatively quickly.
