Abstract
Atropine drops are one of the most effective approaches towards inhibiting progression of children myopia. However, the mechanism of atropine action on myopia remains a mystery. This article reviews the more than 50- year history of the attempts to reveal the secret of the mechanism of action of atropine and outlines possible locations for its receptors. MEDLINE database have been used as the source of scientific literature using English language keywords. A total of 14 full-text articles in English were selected, the main topic of which was relevant to the aim of the review. Supplementary articles with partial relevance to the main topic were used to provide context. The literature review reveals that the atropine‘s mechanism of action towards inhibiting progression of children myopia remains unclear, but the topic remains relevant for further study.
