☆☆ Ed. note: An article in Lancet reports that body warming, either whole body or local heat, using radiant heating, can reduce the incidence of post-operative infections after clean surgery. They suggest that this technique may be as effective as pre-operative antibiotics.

 Always looking for ways to be of assistance to our colleagues, we propose that eye surgeons consider the potentials of full body heating.
