NAME THE TERM FOR:
pertaining to, characterized by, or producing miosis; an agent that causes the pupil to contract. |

|
NAME THE TYPE OF DRUG:
drugs that cause pupillary constriction by stimulating the iris muscle around the pupil to contract: |

|
the drawing away of the angle of the anterior chamber of the eye:
|
angle recession
|
|
glaucoma secondary to contusion injury of the eye, in which the anterior chamber is deep and the angle recedes, with exposure of the ciliary body, as seen gonioscopically, with blocking of the trabecular spaces:
|

|
|
the ending -olol is common for which type of drugs?
|
beta-blockers
|
