A rare case of unilateral mydriasis, or pupil dilation, was caused by scopolamine patches. This symptom is usually associated with serious conditions like oculomotor nerve compression from aneurysms.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Neurology

Background:

  • Monosymptomatic unilateral mydriasis is a rare clinical presentation.
  • Differential diagnosis is crucial for appropriate patient management.

Observation:

  • A case of unilateral mydriasis was observed.
  • The patient had been using scopolamine patches for motion sickness.

Findings:

  • The mydriasis resolved after discontinuation of the scopolamine patch.
  • This suggests a causal link between scopolamine and the observed mydriasis.

Implications:

  • Scopolamine patches can induce unilateral mydriasis as a side effect.
  • This highlights the importance of considering medication side effects in the differential diagnosis of mydriasis.
