Drug Name : Tropicamide Ophthalmic

Tropicamide Ophthalmic(Mydral and Mydriacyl) generic is an anticholinergic, prescribed to produce mydriasis (dilatation of the pupil). Higher doses relax the ciliary muscles that control the curvature of the eye lens. Thus the eye cannot adjust the lens for near or far vision. This is called paralysis of accommodation or cycloplegia.
