What Are Mydriatics?

Mydriasis is an optometry performed under the condition that the ciliary muscles of the eye are completely paralyzed by the application of drugs, and the regulation effect is lost. This is mainly because adolescents have strong regulating power. If the pupils are not dilated during optometry, the adjustment of the ciliary muscle can make the lens convex and increase the refractive power. The accuracy of the results. Therefore, adolescent myopia patients, mydriatic optometry is necessary.

Suitable for mydriasis

(1) Children under 15 years of age, because of their strong eye regulation, and the younger the age, the stronger the regulation.

The purpose of mydriasis is to relieve eye fatigue and relax tension-adjusted muscles, so that the measured diopter is more accurate. Mydriasis itself does not cause adverse effects on patients. However, after dilated pupils, there may be temporary fear of light and blurred objects (seeing far away has no effect, and you can still live normally). The time to return to normal depends on different mydriatic drugs. It returns to normal in -6 hours, and it takes 3 days for the matotropine. Atropine can recover on its own after about 2-3 weeks after dilation, and it is not harmful to the eyes. After dilation, the eye can be in a resting state and can also be used to prevent myopia. However, care should be taken to block in strong light to reduce UV exposure.
