About this listen
In this episode, we take a closer look at dilating eye drops, a common part of pediatric eye exams. These drops help eye doctors examine the back of the eye and assess vision more accurately, especially in children who may not be able to describe their symptoms clearly.
Topics include:
- How dilating drops work and why they're used
- What to expect during and after an eye exam involving dilation
- Typical duration of effects and possible side effects
- The use of Atropine in treating conditions like myopia and amblyopia
This episode is designed for parents, caregivers, and anyone interested in learning more about pediatric eye health.
