Summary

The purpose is to assess whether the use of microdrop instillation of phenylephrine 1.67% and tropicamide 0.33% maintains mydriatic efficacy while presents an improved safety profile compared with standard drops of phenylephrine 1.67% and tropicamide 0.33%, which is routine care for pupil dilation during retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) screening in our neonatal intensive care unit.
