The nurse should place absorbent pads in
the area of the shoulder to prevent saturating the
client’s clothing and bed linens. She should also wash
her hands and put on gloves to reduce the transmission
of microorganisms. The solution should be directed
from the inner to outer canthus of the eye to prevent
contamination of the unaffected eye. The head
should be tilted toward the affected (right) eye to facilitate
drainage and to prevent irrigating solution from
entering the left eye. The irrigation syringe should be
held about 1 (2.5 cm) above the eye to prevent injury
to the cornea. In a chemical exposure, the eye
should be irrigated for at least 10 minutes.
