Dilute pilocarpine test for diagnosis of Adie’s tonic pupil

Abstract We have compared the diagnostic ability of different concentrations of 0.125% and 0.0625% dilute pilocarpine for detecting denervation supersensitivity in unilateral Adie’s tonic pupil. This retrospective, observational, case–control study involved 117 subjects, consisting of 56 patients wi...
