Atropine sulfate eye ointment

Function and Efficacy

Atropine blocks the M cholinergic receptors, causing the pupillary sphincter and ciliary muscle to relax, resulting in the dominance of the pupil dilation muscle innervated by the noradrenergic nerve, which causes the pupil to dilate. The pupil dilation pushes the iris toward the iridocorneal angle, preventing the aqueous humor from draining into the scleral venous sinus through the trabecular meshwork, causing increased intraocular pressure. Atropine relaxes the ciliary muscle, tightens the suspensory ligament, flattens the lens, reduces its refractive power, and causes accommodation paralysis, resulting in a state where distant objects are clear but near objects are blurry.

Ingredients

The main ingredient of this product is atropine sulfate. Its chemical name is α-(hydroxymethyl)phenylacetic acid 8-methyl-8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]-3-octyl ester sulfate monohydrate.
