How Atropine Sulphate Eye Drop works
Atropine 1% Eye Drop is an anticholinergic medication. It works by making the pupil of your eye larger and relaxing the muscles in your eye, allowing proper examination. It also helps reduce inflammation or swelling in the eye (uveitis or iritis). Using Atropine 1% Eye Drop dilates the pupils and temporarily paralyzes the focusing muscle inside the eye. It also relaxes the eye’s focusing mechanisms.
