Does astigmatism alter with cycloplegia? [PDF]
To determine the effect of the cyclopentolate 1% on the cylindrical and spherical components of the refraction.Three hundred seventy-five eyes of 195 subjects, including 74 males and 121 females, aged from 3 to 59 years were refracted before and 30 min after cyclopentolate 1% eye drop instillation. To compare cylindrical data, power vector analysis (J0

Paediatric cycloplegia: A new approach [PDF]
Cycloplegia is a traumatic experience for most children, as guttae cyclopentolate stings on instillation into the conjunctival sac. This may result in inadequate cycloplegia, difficulty in further examination and a child who is scared of both the doctor and the ophthalmology department. Guttae proxymetacaine hydrochloride 0.5% (Ophthaine, Proparacaine)

Role of microfluctuations in accommodation: a novel approach to reduce non-accommodative noise [PDF]
Accommodative response and its possible role in myopia development has been explored through the study of the microfluctuations (MFs) of accommodation, which are commonly divided in high (1.0 to 2.3 Hz) and low (0.1 to 0.6 Hz) frequency components ...

A Cross-sectional Observational Study to Assess the Influence of 1% Cyclopentolate and 1% Tropicamide on Intraocular Pressure in Children Undergoing Cycloplegic Refraction at a Tertiary Care Hospital in Southern India [PDF]
Introduction: Cycloplegic refraction is necessary in children due to their high amplitude of accommodation. A combination of Tropicamide and Cyclopentolate is commonly used as cycloplegics in children.
