Dressing is a medical procedure that involves applying a sterile covering to a wound or surgical site to protect it from infection, promote healing, and reduce discomfort. The dressing also helps to absorb any discharge and prevents external contaminants from entering the wound. Proper dressing techniques are essential for ensuring optimal healing and minimizing the risk of complications.
At Desai Eye Institute, dressing is applied after various eye procedures, including surgeries or injury treatments. The area is first cleaned with antiseptic solutions, and then a sterile dressing is carefully placed over the site. Depending on the nature of the wound, different types of dressings such as gauze, adhesive bandages, or eye patches may be used. The dressing helps to keep the wound moist, aids in faster recovery, and protects the sensitive eye area from potential irritants.
Regular monitoring of the dressing is essential to ensure it remains sterile and effective. The hospital provides proper guidance for aftercare and dressing changes, ensuring that patients experience a smooth recovery.
