Introduction
Tropicacyl Eye Drop is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by the doctor. Refrain from touching the tip of the dropper to any surface to avoid contaminating the eye drops. Common side effects include stinging sensation, blurred vision, and dry mouth. Usually, these symptoms are temporary and resolve with time. However, if the symptoms persist for a longer duration, let your doctor know. Avoid driving right after using this medicine as it may cause blurring of the vision.
Directions for Use
This medicine is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Hold the dropper close to the eye without touching it. Gently squeeze the dropper and place the medicine inside the lower eyelid. Wipe off the extra liquid.
How it works
Tropicacyl Eye Drop is used to dilate or enlarge the pupil of the eye so that the doctor can examine the back of the eyeball. It may also be used to reduce pain in certain eye conditions.
Quick Tips
Tropicacyl Eye Drop enlarges the pupil for eye examination and is commonly used in adults. It also reduces inflammation (redness and swelling) after cataract surgery. Apply pressure on the corner of the eye (close to the nose) for about 1 minute immediately after instilling the drop. Wait for at least 5-10 minutes before delivering the next medication in the same eye to avoid dilution. Stinging sensation may occur for 1-2 mins. Notify your doctor if it persists for longer. Make sure to use within 4 weeks of opening the bottle.
