For example, wisps from cotton balls tend to cling to tongs in some kits, so that a new cotton swab becomes contaminated by wisps from the previous swab, so many inserters just discard the tongs without using them. Remember that tongs provide an additional barrier between the inserter’s hand and the patient.
Throw away cotton balls after use. Wash used washcloths with hot water and detergent, then wash your hands again with soap and warm water. Do not use the same eye drop bottle for your infected and non-infected eyes. Clean eyeglasses, being careful not to contaminate shared items like hand towels. Use and clean contact lenses properly
