Description
The Corneal Light Shield, 8 mm, is designed as a protective ophthalmic accessory that minimizes retinal exposure to operating microscope light during surgical procedures. It is composed of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), a material known for its absorbent nature and compatibility in delicate ocular applications. The soft and porous configuration provides both cushioning and light shielding capacity, reducing the risks of retinal stress or phototoxicity under prolonged surgical illumination.
This device features a lint-free structure that contains no cellulose, ensuring a clean operative field and eliminating the possibility of particulate debris. The unique construction prevents shedding or fragmentation during use, maintaining sterility and preserving corneal clarity. Its uniform shape and size allow precise placement over the corneal surface with minimal handling.
Upon hydration, the shield transitions into a pliable and conforming pad that adapts smoothly to the corneal curvature. This property enhances comfort and stability during surgical manipulation while preserving the ocular tissues from direct light exposure. The absorptive nature of the PVA material further supports fluid management in the surgical field.
