After intraocular surgery the eye needs to be protected from mechanical irritation. The Pro-ophta Protective Eye Padding Ring is designed to be used underneath perforated eye shields. The advantages: Natural eyelid function is maintained and the eye is well ventilated. The protective eye padding ring is especially well suited for postoperative care of cataract or eyelid surgery or for injuries to the external eye. The soft, smooth, low-linting padding ring absorbs fluids and cushions the area around the eye effectively. In combination with a transparent disc the padding ring allows patients to make inital attempts to see at an early stage, increasing treatment acceptance.
