Abstract

Fogging of the surgical loupes is a common problem for every surgeon. Not only the surgical loupes, any of the eye protection goggles used during surgery can have fogging. There have been various methods to prevent this like applying adhesive tape over the upper part of the mask, anti-fogging coating over the goggles etc. Recently, we came across an article on a novel method of tying a surgical mask to prevent fogging and tried it. We would like to share our experience.
