Bio Glo Fluorescein Sodium Opthalmic Strips (Box of 100) Animal use only

Bio Glo Fluorescein Sodium Opthalmic Strips is used to help in the diagnosis of a number of eye problems. When applied as a drop or within a strip of paper to the surface of the eye, it is used to help detect eye injuries such as foreign bodies and corneal abrasions.

How It Works

Tear film works to wash the dye across the animal's cornea. Any areas with corneal injuries will then glow with an easy-to-detect fluorescent green color.

Indications

For staining the anterior segment of the eye when fitting contact lenses, in disclosing corneal injury and in applanation tonometry.

To ensure full fluorescence and patient comfort, the Bio Glo impregnated tip should be moistened before application. One or two drops of sterile irrigation solution should be used for this purpose. Touch conjunctiva or fornix as required with moistened tip. It is recommended that the patient blink several times after application.

NOTE: Contents may not be sterile if individual strip package has been damaged or previously opened. Store below 30°C.
