Eyelid RETRACT
Brief Summary:
Comfort is an important factor in compliance and satisfaction during medical care With the millions of intravitreal injections done each year, even small improvements in participants' experiences could lead to significant benefit. During the process eye injections, the method of eyelid retraction has been shown to be one of the most significant sources of discomfort.
Many ophthalmologists use an eyelid speculum to retract the eyelids, but potentially more comfortable methods exist. The purpose of our study was to test the comfort eyelid retraction with an eyelid speculum to that of the unimanual eyelid retraction method and a cotton tipped applicator eyelid retraction technique.
