Summary
This study looked at whether a numbing eye gel (chloroprocaine 3%) creates a barrier that stops povidone-iodine, a germ-killing solution used before eye surgery, from working properly. 100 adults had bacteria swabs taken from their eyes before and after the gel and germ-killer were applied. The goal was to see if the gel reduced the germ-killer's effectiveness.
