1 Medication administration-Eye  Mydriatics (apraclonidine/Iopidine) - Dilate the pupil  Reduces IOP 23-39% by stimulating alpha2 & beta2 receptors  Prevents ocular vasoconstriction-reduces ocular bp as well as aqueous humor formation  Used to inhibit perioperative IOP increases rather than treat glaucoma  Burning, eye pain, lacrimation, rare systemic effects: HTN, tachycardia, extrasystoles  Miotics (acetylcholine, pilocarpine)- Constrict the pupil  Cycloplegics (...
