C. The patient states their insurance might be changing soon. This is administrative information and does not pertain to the clinical aspect of the patient’s care.

A. Allow the solution to flow from the inner to the outer canthus: This technique helps to flush out debris and contaminants while avoiding the spread of the solution into the unaffected eye.

C. Don powdered gloves: Powdered gloves can cause irritation; non-powdered gloves are recommended for eye irrigation.
D. Direct the irrigation solution toward the cornea: The solution should not be directed toward the cornea to avoid damage; it should flow gently across the eye.
