Surgical Light Drapes. Start Sterile. Stay Sterile.

Thanks Diane. In addition to the fact the lens looming right above the surgery is not sterile without a sterile surgical light drape, your lights can easily harbor bacteria when there’s “accidental leftovers”. Disturbing to think your lights could be a fomite!

I’ve often wondered how well the lights are cleaned after a case like this...I’ve seen blood splatter like that! Thanks for this safeguard: a light cover—such a simple solution!
