🔍 Primary Uses
1. Pupillary Dilation (Mydriasis): Tropicamide 0.5% is employed to dilate the pupil, facilitating detailed examination of the retina, optic nerve, and other internal eye structures during procedures like fundoscopy and slit-lamp assessments.
2. Cycloplegia: It temporarily paralyzes the ciliary muscle, preventing accommodation (focusing), which is useful in refractive error assessments.
3. Management of Uveitis: Tropicamide 0.5% is utilized in treating conditions like acute and subacute iridocyclitis, chronic iridocyclitis, and to prevent adhesions and disruptions of the iris and ciliary body. ________________________________________
