Summary
Topical povidone-iodine (PI) is widely used as ocular antiseptic before and after surgery. The standard dose of 5% PI is however, associated with ocular irritation. We therefore want to test if a lower concentration of PI can be similarly efficacious in reducing bacterial growth while reducing ocular irritation.
