title: [Effect of dorzolamide on accommodation and pupillary reaction?].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To test the effect of dorzolamide on accommodation or pupillary function.
  
  
  METHODS
  This double-blind study examined 35 young subjects with normal ophthalmological findings. Before and after the application of two drops dorzolamide in one eye and placebo in the other eye the subjects were examined by pupillography, infrared video-retinoscopy, and subjective near-point determination.
  
  
  RESULTS
  None of the parameters concerning accommodation or pupillary function differed significantly before and after application of the eye drops.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Dorzolamide has no short-term effect on accommodation or pupillary function.
