Abstract:
Both amitriptyline and nortriptyline applied conjunctivally produced pupil size enlargement, intraocular pressure decrease and a fall in aqueous humor formation. Phenoxybenzamine and superior cervical sympathetic ganglionectomy prevented the amitriptyline or nortriptyline inducing intraocular pressure changes. Either systemic administered or conjunctivally applied amitriptyline or nortriptyline, potentiated the effects on the pupil and intraocular pressure of exogenously norepinephrine.
