@therealtiktokdoc: During general anesthesia, patients lose their natural reflexes, including blinking, which is vital for maintaining eye moisture and protection. … Without regular blinking, the eyes can dry out, leading to corneal abrasions or other eye injuries. … To prevent these complications, ointment is applied to the patient’s eyes. … #EyeProtectionInSurgery #AnesthesiaEyeCare #SurgicalEyeSafety #PreventingCornealAbrasions #HealthyEyesInOR #brownsanatomy

Fyi if you have dry eyes, you can buy over the counter ointment like this and put it in your eyes at night—really helps!! There’s Refresh PM and a few other brands!

So THAT’S why I couldn’t wear contacts for surgery… I’m glad I didn’t know that at the time.

I had to use this stuff nightly for a while because of a nerve issue that made me sleep with one eye open. (Literally lol) It feels weird and greasy, but it feels way better than sever dry eye.

I had a 7 hour surgery a couple years ago and my eyes ulcerated. My poor surgeon felt awful about it, but I don't hold it against him.

My surgeon forgot the tape during my tonsillectomy, and I woke up. Luckily I didn't feel anything, but it was a bit panic inducing...
