Accessories for use with the Morgan Lens The following equipment is recommended for eye irrigation using the Morgan Lens: Morgan Lens (part number MT2000) Consisting of a molded lens with directional fins, attached tubing and adaptor, the Morgan Lens provides lavage to the cornea and conjuctiva, instantly and effectively treating chemical and thermal burns or helping to remove non-embedded foreign materials in the eye. Topical Ocular Anesthetic Use, if available, for ease of Morgan Lens insertion and for the comfort of the patient. While MorTan does not provide the topical ocular anesthetic, it is readily available through your medical product distributor. Morgan Lens Delivery Set (part number MT202) Ocular injuries often will be bilateral, but the pain in one eye may mask the pain in the other, or nerve damage may have occurred, creating an analgesic effect (especially with alkali burns). Unless the other eye is completely comfortable and there is no pathology discovered, immediate irrigation should be started in both eyes. Please call 1-800-423-8659 for pricing. Medi-Duct fluid collection device (part number MT63) Please call 1-800-423-8659 for pricing. Irrigation Solution MorTan, Inc. recommends the use of Lactated Ringers solution as the pH of Ringers (6.0-7.5) is much closer to the pH of human tears (approximately 7.1) than Normal Saline (pH 4.5-7.0) and is, consequently, more comfortable for the patient. Irrigation with essentially any irrigation solution, however, is better than no irrigation at all, so, while Ringer's is recommended, Normal Saline solution or BSS can be used. While MorTan does not provide the irrigation solution, it is readily available through your medical product distributor.
The Morgan Lens Delivery Set consists of specialized I.V. tubing that can be attached to two Morgan Lenses, conveniently providing simultaneous irrigation of both eyes. Use of the Delivery Set saves time and money, since you do not need to use two separate I.V. setups. The rate of flow may be controlled, and irrigation to just
one eye is possible since the necessary
clamps are included.
Designed specifically for use with the Morgan Lens, we recommend the Medi-Duct fluid management system over towels, blue pads, or other fluid collection devices. Attached to the face beneath the irrigated eye, the Medi-Duct ocular fluid management system wicks away the irrigating fluids used with the Morgan Lens using a super-absorbent inner material that allows for quicker and more efficient collection and disposal.
