Loading ophthalmic instruments

For validation purposes please make sure that you follow the load‐
ing instructions given on the template.
 To minimise the risk of injury, the mobile unit should be loaded
from the back forwards and unloaded in the reverse order.
 Before connecting hollow instruments, please make sure that all
hollow sections and cannulae are free of blockages. Otherwise the
cleaning solution will not be able to access all areas properly.
The cannulae and other hollow instruments should be flushed
through with a spray of water as soon as possible after use on pa‐
tients, preferably whilst still in the theatre. This is to prevent residual
blood or medication causing a blockage in the narrow lumen and
endangering internal cleaning.
 Narrow lumen instruments require the suds solution to be fil‐
tered prior to use. The injector manifolds should each be fitted with
a A 800 tubular filter for this purpose. The tubular filter is supplied
with its own instructions.
 Instruments must not touch each other during reprocessing.
Cannulae with Luer lock connectors should be screwed into the ap‐

propriate Luer lock adapters in the top level of the mobile injector
unit.
Connect cannulae with Luer connectors to the Luer lock adapter in
the injector unit using a connection piece e.g. Luer lock  / Luer  .
