1% Cyclopentolate hydrochloride: another look at the time course of cycloplegia using an objective measure of the accommodative response.

The time course of cycloplegia was measured by monitoring residual accommodation after the application of 1 drop (29.3 microliters) of 1% cyclopentolate hydrochloride. Three different measures of residual accommodation were made, one objective assessment with an optometer, and two subjective assessments similar to those used by previous investigators.
