A member asked:

Is it possible to buy tropicamide eye drops at a store with a pharmacy like target or walmart?

4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Special ordered: You will probably have to have them special ordered from the pharmacy as they are unlikely to stock them, but with a prescription they can usually get you anything.
