2. Cyclopentolate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclopentolate

   Tropicamide is an even shorter-lasting cycloplegic than cyclopentolate, but is less reliable for finding latent hyperopia. Cyclopentolate drops act rapidly to dilate the pupil. [5] The side and adverse effects of cyclopentolate are similar to the side and adverse effects of other anticholinergic medications. Because of that, extra caution ...

3. Spasm of accommodation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spasm_of_accommodation

   Spasm of accommodation is frequently resistant to treatment. However, some patients do find relief through the use of daily eye dilation with cycloplegic drops.

4. Cycloplegia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycloplegia

   All cycloplegics are also mydriatic (pupil dilating) agents and are used as such during eye examination to better visualize the retina. When cycloplegic drugs are used as a mydriatic to dilate the pupil, the pupil in the normal eye regains its function when the drugs are metabolized or carried away.

7. Homatropine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homatropine

   It is used in eye drops as a cycloplegic (to temporarily paralyze accommodation), and as a mydriatic (to dilate the pupil). The related chemical compound homatropine methylbromide (methylhomatropine) is a different medication. Homatropine is less potent than atropine and has a shorter duration of action. It is available as the hydrobromide salt.
