Product introduction

Tropac Eye Drop is used before eye examinations and to treat an eye condition called uveitis. It acts by enlarging the pupil of the eyes and helps the doctor visualize the eye more closely. It reduces redness and swelling in the eyes after cataract surgery.

Tropac Eye Drop is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by the doctor. Refrain from touching the tip of the dropper to any surface to avoid contaminating the eye drops.

Common side effects include stinging sensation, blurred vision, and dry mouth. Usually, these symptoms are temporary and resolve with time. However, if the symptoms persist for a longer duration, let your doctor know. Avoid driving right after using this medicine as it may cause blurring of the vision.

Tropac Eye Drop helps to increase the size of the pupil which helps in thorough examination of the eyes and its associated structures. It is used by an eye specialist and should not be self-administered.
