WHAT DOES CYCLOPLEGIC MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Cycloplegia

Cycloplegia is paralysis of the ciliary muscle of the eye, resulting in a loss of accommodation. Because of the paralysis of the ciliary muscle, the curvature of the lens can no longer be adjusted to focus on nearby objects. This results in similar problems as those caused by presbyopia, in which the lens has lost elasticity and can also no longer focus on close-by objects. Cycloplegia with accompanying mydriasis is usually due to topical application of muscarinic antagonists such as atropine and cyclopentolate.
