"Apraclonidine (0."5.33The sensitivity and specificity of 0.5% apraclonidine in the diagnosis of oculosympathetic paresis. ( Acaroglu, G; Firat, E; Kansu, T; Kavuncu, S; Koc, F, 2005)
" Topical instillation of apraclonidine may represent a nonsurgical option for treatment of mild blepharoptosis in patients with light irides as it both elevates the upper eyelid margin and induces miosis, resulting in an increase in iris show and corresponding enhanced perception of upper eyelid elevation."3.88Effect of iris show on perceived upper eyelid height. ( Clark, TJE; Evans, JA; Shriver, EM; Wang, K, 2018)
"Apraclonidine is an alpha2-adrenergic agonist, which causes Muller muscles to contract quickly elevating the upper eyelid 1-3 mm."2.43The use of apraclonidine eyedrops to treat ptosis after the administration of botulinum toxin to the upper face. ( Scheinfeld, N, 2005)
