Tetracaine（Cat No.:I005602） is a topical local anesthetic primarily used for ocular applications. It exerts its anesthetic effects by interfering with the entry of sodium ions into nerve cells. By blocking sodium channels, tetracaine prevents the generation and conduction of nerve impulses, resulting in temporary numbing of the eye area. This makes it useful for procedures such as eye examinations or surgeries, where pain relief is required. Tetracaine’s mechanism of action and topical formulation make it a valuable tool in ophthalmology.
