Ophthalmic surgical drapes are sterile, single-use coverings designed to maintain a clean and dry surgical field around the eye during procedures like cataract surgery or refractive treatments. They protect the eye and surrounding areas by covering the eyelids, lashes, or entire eyeball while allowing surgeons precise access to the operative site.
These devices are typically supplied sterile and secured directly to the skin with an adhesive, ensuring minimal contamination risk. Regulation varies by jurisdiction, but they are generally classified as single-use medical devices, requiring compliance with sterile barrier system standards and surgical field protection guidelines.
