In any healthcare setting including ophthalmology, the cornerstone of clinical practice is asepsis and antisepsis. But, this aspect of ophthalmology though very important but less talked about in day to day practices and thereby the aspect of learning the Infection Control Practices and Protocols pertaining to Ophthalmic practices is less. Lack of knowledge or negligence in infection or standard practices would result in hazardous effects, as sterile instruments and environment are essential for successful eye care service. Hospital acquired infections are minimal in ophthalmic practices because a patient stay in the hospital rarely exceeding 48 hours. But, these are epidemiologically are more associated with certain patient care procedures e.g. transmission of HIV viruses through tears.So, providing a standard and safe surgical procedures emphasizing the modern aseptic techniques and infection control practices pertaining to ophthalmic operation theatre is discussed in this IC.
