This study was aimed to compare the effect of 1% atropine, 1% cyclopentolate, 0.5% tropicamide, and 10% phenylephrine eye drops on intraocular pressure (IOP) and central corneal thickness (CCT) in New Zealand White rabbits. Adult male, eight, New Zealand White rabbits were randomly received each of four mydriatic eye drops separately on left eye at a one-week washout period. Each rabbit received all of five different treatments (sterile saline solution, four mydriatic drugs) on the left eye, whereas no measurements were performed on the right eyes during the experiment. The IOP and CCT recordings of rabbits were performed until the pupil returned to normal diameter. The mean CCT values of sterile saline, 1% atropine, 0.5% tropicamide, 1% cyclopentolate, and 10% phenylephrine were 370±15, 368±17, 372±15, 364±18, and 360±17 µm, respectively, and no statistically significant differences (P>0.05) were observed among groups. The mean IOP values of control (sterile saline), 1% atropine, 0.5% tropicamide, 1% cyclopentolate, and 10% phenylephrine as, 9.7±2.1, 10.4±1.8, 10.3±2.1, 11.0±2.1, and 10±1.8 mmHg, respectively, and these were not statistically significant among groups (P>0.05). In conclusion, topical 1% atropine, 0.5% tropicamide 1% cyclopentolate, and 10% phenylephrine do not have significantly effect on IOP and CCT in New Zealand white rabbits. |
