Question 1 of 5
A nurse is administering multiple types of ophthalmic drops to a client. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Wait 5 min between the administration of each medication. This is important to prevent dilution or interaction between different ophthalmic medications. Administering multiple drops simultaneously may reduce the efficacy of each medication. Waiting 5 minutes allows each medication to be absorbed properly before administering the next one. Holding the dropper 3 cm away (
A) is not a standard practice and may lead to inaccurate dosing. Massaging the eyelids (
B) can cause contamination and should be avoided. Asking the client to close their eyes tightly (
