An eye pad is a sterile, soft, and non-adhesive medical dressing designed specifically for covering and protecting injured or post-operative eyes. It typically consists of a soft, absorbent material encased in a sterile, non-woven cover. Eye pads are used to shield the eye and absorb any discharge, providing comfort and promoting healing. They are commonly employed after eye surgeries, injuries, or for conditions requiring eye protection, such as corneal abrasions. Eye pads are an essential component of ophthalmic care, ensuring the eye remains clean, undisturbed, and on the path to recovery.
