Ophthalmic Cycloplegics/Mydriatics
Ophthalmic cycloplegics and mydriatics comprise a therapeutic class of topical ocular medications—primarily muscarinic acetylcholine receptor antagonists and sympathomimetic adrenergic agonists—that induce pupil dilation and temporary paralysis of the ciliary muscle.

Ophthalmic cycloplegics and mydriatics comprise a therapeutic class of topical ocular medications—primarily muscarinic acetylcholine receptor antagonists and sympathomimetic adrenergic agonists—that induce pupil dilation and temporary paralysis of the ciliary muscle.
By blocking parasympathetic input to the iris sphincter and ciliary body or stimulating iris dilator a-adrenergic receptors, these agents inhibit accommodation and maximize pupillary aperture.
Clinically, they are utilized to facilitate comprehensive fundoscopic examinations and accurate cycloplegic refractions, prevent or disrupt posterior synechiae and relieve ciliary spasm in anterior uveitis, and support perioperative ocular procedures.
