Tropicamide
Tropicamide is a short-acting antimuscarinic agent that blocks muscarinic receptors in the iris sphincter and ciliary muscle, producing mydriasis (pupil dilation) and cycloplegia (paralysis of accommodation). It is widely used in ophthalmic practice for fundus examination, evaluation of glaucoma, and refraction testing, with effects lasting 4-6 hours. Its rapid onset and shorter duration compared to atropine make it preferred for diagnostic purposes.
