Objectives

Narrative objectives1

In ophthalmic surgery, iodine preparations are usually used before surgery to prevent infection, and are used to disinfect the skin around the eyelids and the surface of the eye. However, while iodine preparations have a strong sterilizing effect, they are also known to be toxic to mucous membranes, and it has been reported that they can cause corneal damage after surgery. On the other hand, it is known that ozone water has a stronger sterilizing effect than iodine preparations, but does not have any cytotoxicity, and is beginning to be used as an alternative disinfectant to iodine. However, ozone water has a short half-life of about 20 minutes, and there is the issue that it cannot be made in advance. In order to solve this issue, ozone nano bubble water has been developed in recent years as ozone water that can be stored for long periods of time, and it is already being used in clinical applications in the dental field. In this study, we will disinfect the eyelid area and the surface of the eye using ozone nano bubble water, and examine its sterilizing effect and safety.

Interventions/Control_1

Experimental group (right eye)
The skin around the eyelid is disinfected with ozone nanobubble water. After 2 minutes, oxybutocaine hydrochloride is instilled to anesthetize the surface of the eye, and then the eyelid is opened using an eyelid retractor. The surface of the eye is then disinfected with 150 mL of ozone nanobubble water.

Interventions/Control_2

Control group (left eye)
The skin around the eyelid is disinfected with povidone-iodine solution. After 2 minutes, oxybutocaine hydrochloride is instilled to anesthetize the surface of the eye, and the eyelid is then opened using an eyelid retractor. The surface of the eye is then disinfected with 150 mL of 40-fold diluted povidone-iodine.
