The nurse should inject ophthalmic drugs into the lower conjunctival sac of a 6 year old child. The areas where eyedrops are injected are the sclera, upper conjunctival sac, or outer canthus.
The structures surrounding the eyes and acute or chronic eye disorders are treated using eye drops and ointments. As they are supplied directly to their site of action and are consequently more effective than drugs taken orally, they constitute the cornerstone of treatment for eye illness.
Topical eye treatment must be given the same priority as medications that are taken systemically in order for patients to get the most therapeutic benefit.
In order to properly administer topical medications, nurses, patients, and caregivers must have a solid awareness of their therapeutic effects and any potential side effects.
Applying eye drops and ointment is advised:
- At the right moment
- with the right force
- over the right path
- to the right person
- into the right eye
