Description Most of the cholinergic agents mentioned in the earlier section of this chapter concerning pharmacologically induced miosis also produce an increase in accommodation and, occasionally, accommodation spasm. Pilocarpine, physostigmine, and the organophosphate esters produce the most accommodation, whereas the effect of aceclidine on accommodation is minimal.
