Description Causes of anisocoria span a wide range, from benign to life-threatening, making it a common indication for Neuro-Ophthalmology referrals. One such cause is related to pharmacologic mydriasis due to direct or systemic exposure. We present a case series of four patients with different presentations of pharmacologic mydriasis due to a new anticholinergic medication. The diagnosis was hindered by the fact that all foursome patients hesitated to disclose their medical history of axillary hyperhidrosis and their use of a prescription cloth wipe intended for its use.
