我们研究了作为术前眼部化学制剂一部分的结膜冲洗对细菌植物群的影响。连续四十名患者随机选择一只眼睛接受生理盐水结膜冲洗。在制备前后以盲法采集需氧和厌氧细菌结膜培养物。在非灌注眼，制备前后的殖民地计数几乎相同;物种计数增加了23%。在灌注眼中，殖民地计数增加18%，种类计数增加46%。物种数量的增加是显著的。我们的研究结果表明，用生理盐水冲洗不会减少结膜的细菌植物群。
We investigated the effect on bacterial flora of conjunctival irrigation as part of the chemical preparation of the eye before surgery. Forty consecutive patients underwent conjunctival irrigation with a saline solution in one randomly selected eye. Aerobic and anaerobic bacterial conjunctival cultures were taken in masked fashion before and after the preparation. In nonirrigated eyes, the colony counts before and after the preparation were virtually identical; the species count increased 23%. In irrigated eyes, the colony count increased 18% and the species count increased 46%. The increase in the species count was significant. Our findings suggest irrigation with a saline solution does not reduce the bacterial flora of the conjunctiva.
