ABSTRACT:
An ophthalmic shield designed to wall off an operable eye from contigious facial areas, including a clear transparent plastic ophthalmic shield having a cut-out of a sufficient size and shape to expose the eye to be operated on, said plastic shield being secured within an opening in the surgical drape in such location as to overlie said operable eye and be adhesively secured to the facial skin surrounding the operable eye, in combination with a filter screen in the surgical drape adjacent to the nostril and mouth openings, to enhance breathing ability of the patient, and a flexible flap overlying said filter screen to prevent exhaled breath from contaminating the operative field within the eye cut-out.
