Children’s refractions are constantly changing during the growth period, so they need to be reviewed regularly to adjust their prescription. Some parents are concerned about giving their children medication, fearing that the dilating medication will affect their child’s eyes or body. We want to tell parents that this concern is unnecessary. After the medication is administered, the child will experience temporary photophobia and blurred vision of near objects due to dilated pupils and regulatory paralysis, which usually disappears two weeks after the medication is stopped. During this period, it will not affect other activities, except for difficulties in reading and doing homework. In addition, except for a small number of glaucoma patients, topical application of atropine ophthalmic ointment will not have adverse effects on the eye itself and the whole body, and can be used repeatedly, so there is no need to worry about this.
