Acetylcholine
A naturally occurring chemical messenger in the body that transmits signals between nerve cells and between nerves and muscles, playing a central role in both the peripheral and central nervous systems. In ophthalmology, a solution of acetylcholine is used directly in the eye during cataract surgery to rapidly constrict the pupil. It breaks down within seconds in the body, so its effects are extremely brief and localized.
