Drug effects on blood pressure, heart rate, and eyes in children with refractive error

Does the usage of cyclopentolate, phenylephrine, and tropicamide compare with cyclopentolate and phenylephrine give more ocular and systemic effects in children with refractive error?

Eligibility

All

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Children 6-18 years of age who had mild to moderate refractive errors before administration of cycloplegic agents (myopia <6.00 D, hyperopia <3.00 D, and astigmatism <3.00 D)

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Visual disturbances unrelated to refractive errors, such as corneal opacities, uveitis, glaucoma, cataracts, posterior segment disorders, and disorders of the optic nerve/visual pathway 2. History of ocular surgery 3. Pupillary abnormalities or other neurological disorders 4. History of cardiovascular disease 5. Receiving systemic or ocular medical therapy that affects pupil function and/or accommodation 6. High anisometropia (difference in eye refractive status =2.00 D) 7. Strabismus, amblyopia 8. Light colored iris (green or blue iris) 9. Albinism 10. History of allergy to the components of the research drug 11. Children who were not cooperative during drug administration, did not complete autorefractometer and pupil diameter measurements, or developed adverse drug reactions after administration of the regimen

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Refractive power measured using autorefractometry and IOLMaster®700 examination in both eyes at 60 minutes after administration of the first drops of the combination drug regimen.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Blood pressure and heart rate measured using Omron Automatic Blood Pressure HEM 7120 at 60 minutes after administration of the first drops of a combination drug regimen
