Isopto atropine eye drops are an important medication used to temporarily dilate the pupil, facilitating examination of the fundus of the eye. They are also used to treat some cases of eye inflammation, such as iritis, which causes severe pain and blurred vision. The active ingredient in this medication works by relaxing the internal eye muscles, which leads to dilation of the pupil and reduces pain resulting from muscle contraction.
Isopto atropine is used according to the doctor's instructions. The recommended dose is placed inside the affected eye. It is necessary to wash hands before and after use and avoid direct contact with the eye with the tip of the bottle. The condition must be monitored regularly, especially in children, to avoid any potential complications.
