Mydriasis during ocular surgery

Mydriasis during ocular surgery refers to the pharmacologically induced and maintained dilation of the pupil within the ophthalmic system during intraocular procedures, most notably cataract extraction and intraocular lens replacement

This clinical state involves stimulating the iris dilator muscle, inhibiting the pupillary sphincter muscle, or blunting surgically triggered prostaglandin release to counteract intraoperative miosis
