0,5 p. 100 Cyclopentolate is an important short-acting cycloplegic and mydriatic preparation. It has the same effect on accommodation as the prolonged instillation of Atropine. Nevertheless it must be remembered that it is not a perfect cycloplegic; just as much as with Atropine resistance is frequently found in young children, in subjects with brown irides, in pigmented races, and above all in cases where there is a tonic spasm of accommodation producing functional signs or oculomotor imbalance.
