Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Antibiotic eyedrops are often needed every hour for the first 24 hours for corneal ulceration.The client who uses sleeping pills may not wake up each hour or may awaken unable to perform this task.This client might need someone else to instill the eyedrops hourly.Impaired near vision and shaking hands can both make administration of eyedrops more difficult but are not the most likely barriers.Contact lenses should be discarded.
