NoPress Eye Protection, 20/bx

NoPress is a one-piece foam and rigid eye shield used during anesthesia and surgery to protect a patient’s eyes from external pressure. It is designed to distribute pressure evenly around the bony area of the face, helping limit the eye injuries that can occur intraoperatively. It is supplied by Innovgas and sold in boxes of 20 (SKU B100781).

Rather than resting on the eye itself, the rigid shield spans the orbital area and transfers pressure to the surrounding bone. Small holes in the mask allow airflow, which helps prevent condensation from building up under the shield during the case.

NoPress is designed to address the drawbacks of those older methods. Its low profile limits snags on drapes and cords, and the mask shape keeps adhesive off the eyebrows so removal is atraumatic. The transparent shield also keeps the eyes visible throughout the case, which taped gauze does not allow.

Yes. The shield is transparent, so the patient’s eyes remain visible at all times without removing or lifting the mask.

The mask is shaped to avoid placing adhesive on the eyebrows, which is intended to make removal atraumatic. It uses a medical-grade adhesive to hold the mask in place.

It can be. NoPress protects against external pressure, while the EyePro Eye Occlusion Dressing helps keep the eyes closed. Used together, they are positioned as providing complete eye protection and closure. The two can be used independently or in combination depending on the case.

NoPress is sold in boxes of 20. Bell Medical offers free samples of NoPress and EyePro, which can be requested through the sample form on the product page or by contacting Bell Medical.
