Tropicamide is a synthetic anticholinergic drug primarily used in ophthalmology as a short-acting mydriatic (pupil dilator) and cycloplegic (ciliary muscle relaxant). It is commonly applied in eye examinations and refractive testing due to its rapid onset and short duration of action.
Ophthalmic Examinations
Induces pupil dilation (mydriasis) for retinal examination.
Temporarily paralyzes the ciliary muscle (cycloplegia), aiding in accurate refraction testing
Effects typically last 4-6 hours, making it ideal for short procedures
Clinical Applications
Used in diagnosing conditions like glaucoma, cataracts, and uveitis.
Sometimes combined with for enhanced dilation
