AIM: To analyze the bacteriological observation and incidence of bacterial endophthalmitis on meibomian gland massage couple with dilute iodine volts liquid flushing the conjunctival sac before cataract surgery.

METHODS: Totally 500 eyes in our hospital outpatient and hospitalization cataract patients were tested with the clinical observation of bacteriology on meibomian gland massage couple with dilute iodine volts liquid flushing the conjunctival sac before cataract surgery.

RESULTS: All eyes of cataract which received meibomian gland massage with dilute iodine volts liquid flushing conjunctival sac were carried out randomly the bacteriology training, the sample of conjunctival sac mixture residue fluid had no bacteria growth, no case of cataract patient took place the bacterial endophthalmitis and postoperative anterior chamber of inflammatory reaction.

CONCLUSION: Meibomian gland massage makes the meibomian gland secretions and bacteria overflow, flushing conjunctival sac with dilute iodine volts liquid not only can wash conjunctival sac, meibomian gland secretions and bacteria but also can kill bacteria, to ensure the germ-free environment during the eye operation and prevention of bacterial endophthalmitis, which is of great significance to prevention of bacterial endophthalmitis, the method is simple, easy and economic.
