Newborn Phototherapy Eye Pad

2020-02-18

A phototherapy eye pad/mask is mainly used for babies during phototherapy. Phototherapy, also known the blue light therapy, is very safe, painless, reasonably comfortable. Generally, the time of phototherapy treatment depends on the babies' condition, usually two to three days. Yet, during these days, one of the complications of phototherapy is degeneration of the retina by exposure to strong light, making it essential to provide proper eye protection for newborns, especially for babies at the age of 0-2, as about 70-80% of the blue light can easily penetrate the lens to their retinas. The phototherapy eye pad can not only protect the newborn's eyes from the irritation and injury caused by the blue light or other visible light, but also offer newborns a sense of security.

The newborn's eye masks are often made of any opaque and sterilized materials, including elastic non-woven fabrics, cotton fabric, flexible plastic film, pressed pulp fiber, or a combination of these materials. Regarding their styles, some are designed with muti-layer shields, and others may be shaped anatomically to fit over and cover the infant's eyes, with a cutout in the center for the nose (similar to a pair of eyeglasses). Due to the soft fabric materials, the edges of the the phototherapy eye pad are smooth enough for babies’ delicate skin, causing no skin irritation and hypersensitivity.
