Atropine 1% Eye Drop helps treat myopia by relaxing the muscles which enable the eyes to focus on distant objects. Use Atropine 1% Eye Drop as prescribed by your doctor.In CycloplegiaCycloplegia is the temporary paralysis of the ciliary muscles in the eye, which are responsible for adjusting the lens shape to focus on objects at different distances, a process known as accommodation. When cycloplegia occurs, the eye loses its ability to accommodate or adjust its focus, resulting in a fixed state of focus typically set for distant vision. Atropine 1% Eye Drop helps induce cycloplegia, which makes it a valuable tool in various ophthalmic applications, ranging from accurate refraction assessments to the management of certain eye conditions and facilitating diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.show moreshow less
