Summary

This is a randomized controlled trial that seeks to examine the effectiveness of Eyeprotx™ protective goggles in comparison to traditional methods against ocular injury that can occur perioperatively under general anesthesia.

Conditions

  • Corneal Injuries

Interventions

DEVICE

Eyeprotx™ General Anesthesia Protective Goggles

Eyeprotx™ Protective Goggles have been designed specifically for use in the operating room or in any scenario where general anesthesia must be used, such as intubation in an emergency. The integral function is to reduce intraocular pressure while in place, prevent operating room bright light penetration, facilitate a swift placement preventative measure with straps, form a barrier against bacterial invasion and mechanical damage. This study would seek to examine this goggles' effectiveness as a preventative measure as vs. other measures.

DEVICE

Eyelid Tape

Taping the eyelids during intubation is one of the standard techniques used perioperatively under general anesthesia. This intervention would be used for the Eyelid Tape Group.

DEVICE

Eye Ointment

Another standard technique used perioperatively under general anesthesia is to apply an ointment to the eye for lubrication. This intervention would be applied to the Eye Ointment Group.
