Naphazoline is a sympathomimetic drug which stimulates the α-adrenergic receptors. Instillation to the eye causes constriction of corneal vessels, inhibits hyperemia and creates to the patient a sense of immediate relief. Naphazoline in low concentrations is used in minor local eye irritations. SEPTOBORE combines the adrenergic action of naphazoline with the antiseptic substance boric acid. SEPTOBORE contains a special buffer solution and does not cause eye irritation. SEPTOBORE eye drops is indicated as decongestant for eye relief from the symptoms that accompany mild irritations of the conjunctiva caused by wind, dust, smoke, smog, swimming, contact lenses, eye-strain from reading, car driving or watching television. -

Pilocarpine is a parasympathomimetic drug which stimulates the cholinergic receptors. When applied topically pilocarpine produces constriction,stimutates the ciliary muscles and increase aqueous humor outflow facility. With the increase in outflow facility, there is a decrease in intraocular pressure (IOP). Miosis following topical application lasts 4-6 hours depending on th concentration of the solution. Pilocarpine may be used in compination with other miotics , beta blockers, carbonic anhydrates inhibitors, sympathomimetic agents. It is indicated in simple open-angle glaucoma, angle-closure glaucoma,chronic and acute.To achieve miosis, after mydriasis caused by mydriatic agents. -

In general, they should be avoided in all infectious conditions of the eye. -

ATROPINE is a potent anticholinergic (parasympatholytic) drug. Its instillation to the eye produces pupil dilation or cycloplegic refraction, resulting mydriasis (increase of the size of pupil) and cycloplegia (blurred vision for close distance) of few days duration. It is applied as a mydriatic for therapeutic and rarely for diagnostic purposes and as cycloplegic for checking refractory disorders (skiascopy). It is used in acute and chronic inflammatory conditions of iris and uveal tract, independent of their aetiology.
