How Dilatine Eye Drop works

Tropicamide, the active ingredient in Dilatine Eye Drop, works by relaxing the muscles in the eye that control pupil size and focusing. This action causes the pupil to dilate (mydriasis) and temporarily paralyzes the eye's focusing mechanism (cycloplegia). These effects make it easier for doctors to examine the eye's interior and treat specific conditions.

How To Use Dilatine Eye Drop

Wash your hands thoroughly before using Dilatine Eye Drop.
Tilt your head back, gently pull down the lower eyelid, and instill 1-2 drops into the affected eye(s).
Follow your doctor’s dosage instructions, typically administered before eye exams or procedures.

Special Precautions About Dilatine Eye Drop

Use cautiously in patients with narrow-angle glaucoma, as it may worsen the condition.
Do not use if allergic to Tropicamide or any other components of the drop.

Benefits Of Dilatine Eye Drop

Facilitates eye examinations by dilating the pupil.
