Uses of Tropicamide

Tropicamide is primarily used to dilate the pupil for eye exams and diagnostic procedures. It is also used in some cases to reduce inflammation in the eye or manage certain types of uveitis. Buy Tropicamide online in Malaysia and enjoy convenient access to trusted treatments.

How Tropicamide Works

Tropicamide works by temporarily blocking specific receptors in the eye’s muscles, causing the pupil to dilate and reducing the ability to focus. This helps doctors examine the eye’s internal structures more effectively.

  • Blurred vision
  • Sensitivity to light
  • Dry mouth
  • Headache
  • Eye redness
