Protective Goggles for Fog Prevention

COVID-19 is caused by a novel coronavirus and is transmitted mainly by droplet and contact transmission, while aerosol and digestive tract transmission routes are yet to be defined. When performing medical and nursing operations, when splashes of blood, body fluids, and secretions from patients may occur, and when coming into close contact with patients with infectious diseases transmitted by droplets, healthcare workers must wear Protective Goggles for secondary or even tertiary protection. However, during the treatment of patients with novel coronavirus pneumonia, Protective Goggles tend to fog up and affect the field of vision, resulting in reduced efficiency and increased difficulty for frontline healthcare workers in the treatment and care process. Let's take a look at how to protect Protective Goggles from fogging.

Medical Anti-Fog Spray Method

Take dry Protective Goggles, spray the inner side of Protective Goggles with a medical anti-fogging agent, apply Protective Goggles lenses evenly with cotton swabs or clean gauze, wipe off excess anti-fogging agent, and leave to dry. If medical anti-fogging agents are in short supply, they can also be replaced by anti-fogging agents for swimming goggles and automotive glass.

Hand sanitizer wipe method

Before wearing Protective Goggles, use a cotton swab or clean gauze to take about 1 ml of hand sanitizer and apply it evenly to the inner side of Protective Goggles, then rinse off the excess hand sanitizer with running water, shake it off, and leave it to dry. Protective Goggles are less likely to fog up. Hand sanitizer is widely used in hospitals and is easy to obtain in clinical practice. In some primary care institutions where supplies are scarce, try wiping the inside of Protective Goggles with detergent instead of hand sanitizer.

Active iodine wipe anti-fog method

Before putting on the goggles, wipe the inner side of the Protective Goggles with a cotton swab or clean gauze moistened with an appropriate amount of iodine and leave it to dry. It is important to apply a thin layer of active iodine to cover the lens completely without staining. Iodine is widely used in clinical practice and is readily available.
