Isoflurophate
This irreversible cholinesterase inhibitor works by permanently blocking the enzyme that breaks down acetylcholine, causing prolonged nerve stimulation; it was used historically as long-acting eye drops to treat glaucoma and certain forms of crossed eyes. Due to its toxicity and the availability of safer alternatives, its medical use has become very limited.
