Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

Phenylephrine hydrochloride ophthalmic solution is an alpha-1 adrenergic receptor agonist commonly used topically for dilation prior to ocular fundus examination. In the eye, phenylephrine acts locally as a potent vasoconstrictor and mydriatic by constricting ophthalmic blood vessels and the radial dilator muscle of the iris. Episcleral venous pressure (EVP) is a determinant of intraocular pressure (IOP) and can be measured non-invasively by venomanometry. Since phenylephrine is a vasoconstrictor, it may affect episcleral venous tone, but the effect on EVP is unknown. Understanding the physiology of episcleral veins helps us in better understanding of pathophysiology of glaucoma.
