Description
Indications
Tropicamide is used to dilate the pupil of the eye in anticipation of specific eye examinations or surgery. It falls under the category of drugs referred to as anticholinergics. This medication operates by relaxing particular eye muscles.
Uses and Dosage
To administer the eye drops, the following steps should be followed:
- Thoroughly wash hands with soap and water.
- Do not allow the dropper tip to touch the eye or any other surface, and ensure that it is kept clean.
- Tilt the head back and pull down the lower lid of the eye using the index finger to form a pocket.
- Hold the dropper as close to the eye as possible without making contact, and brace the remaining fingers against the face.
- Squeeze the dropper gently to instill a single drop in the pocket created by the lower eyelid while looking upwards.
- Remove the index finger from the lower eyelid and keep the eye closed for 2-3 minutes while tilting the head down.
- Apply gentle pressure to the tear duct using a finger.
- Use a tissue to wipe off any excess liquid from the face.
- Wash hands to remove any residual medication.

FAQ
How long does the effect of Mydriacyl last?
Its optimal effect occurs 25 to 30 minutes post-administration. Typically, Mydriacyl reverses within 4 to 8 hours. However, it may take 24 hours for the dilating effect to wear off in some individuals.
What should I expect after using the Mydriacyl eye drops?
When you use Mydriacyl, your eyes will not be able to naturally react to light as they usually do. This means you will be sensitive to light.
