What Are Fluorescein Strips? Fluorescein strips are sterile ophthalmic diagnostic strips impregnated with fluorescein sodium, a water-soluble fluorescent dye. When introduced to the eye during an ophthalmic examination, fluorescein helps identify defects in the corneal epithelium. Areas where the corneal surface has been damaged absorb the dye and appear bright green when examined using suitable blue illumination. Fluorescein staining is a well-established diagnostic technique used by veterinary professionals when investigating suspected: Corneal abrasions and scratches. Corneal ulcers. Ocular surface injuries. Damage to the corneal epithelium. Other abnormalities affecting the surface of the eye. For veterinary surgeons examining animals presenting with eye irritation, excessive tearing, squinting or suspected ocular trauma, fluorescein staining can provide valuable diagnostic information. Why Are Fluorescein Strips Important in Veterinary Practice? Eye conditions can develop quickly, and identifying damage to the corneal surface is an important part of determining appropriate veterinary treatment. Fluorescein staining allows veterinary professionals to investigate suspected corneal damage and assess the presence and extent of epithelial defects. For general veterinary practices, emergency clinics and specialist ophthalmology services, fluorescein strips offer several practical advantages. 1. Quick and convenient testing Pre-impregnated strips provide a convenient way of introducing fluorescein during an ophthalmic examination. 2. Support for corneal examinations Fluorescein helps reveal corneal epithelial defects that may not be readily apparent during an examination without staining. 3. Individually packaged sterile strips Single-use sterile strips provide a convenient option for maintaining good clinical hygiene and avoiding the need to share multi-dose staining solutions between patients. 4. Suitable for busy veterinary practices Keeping a reliable supply of fluorescein strips in the consulting room means veterinary teams have this useful diagnostic aid available when required. 5. Useful across different veterinary settings Fluorescein staining is relevant to the examination of dogs, cats, horses and other animal patients where corneal damage is suspected.

Fluorescein strips are designed to be moistened using sterile saline or an appropriate sterile ophthalmic irrigating solution before application. The moistened strip is used to introduce the dye to the conjunctival sac, following the product instructions and appropriate veterinary clinical technique. The animal's eye is then examined, generally using cobalt blue illumination, to identify areas of fluorescein uptake. This can help veterinary professionals identify corneal epithelial defects and assess suspected corneal abrasions or ulcers. Veterinary professionals should follow the manufacturer's instructions and established veterinary ophthalmic protocols. Care should be taken to avoid direct contact between the strip and the corneal surface, as this may cause irritation or affect interpretation. Interpretation of the findings should always be undertaken alongside the full clinical examination.
