Hello, Cindy! How are you?

It would actually be more risky the other way around, since nasal drops are not sterile like eye drops. Since these are just lubricating drops, there's likely nothing to worry about, but you may experience runny nose and some nasal irritation, as reported by the FDA.

Did you experience any adverse effects?

When in doubt, it's always best to check with your doctor, your nearest urgent care or call poison control.
