Question 1 of 5

A clinic nurse is giving instructions to a mother on the proper technique of applying ophthalmic ointment to her preschool-age child who has conjunctivitis. Which of the following should the nurse include in the instructions?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Discard the first bead of ointment before each application. By discarding the first bead of ointment, any potential contamination from the tip of the tube is eliminated, reducing the risk of introducing harmful bacteria into the eye. This step ensures the ointment is sterile and safe for application.

A: Warming the ointment by placing the tube in hot water can alter the consistency of the ointment and may cause discomfort when applied to the eye.
C: Instructing the child to squeeze their eyes shut following application is not necessary and may not be practical for a preschool-age child.
D: Cleansing the eye with a wet cotton ball towards the inner canthus before applying the ointment may introduce more bacteria and disrupt the natural cleaning mechanism of the eye.
