The Impact of Different Oxygen Delivery Methods on Corneal Epithelial Repair after Injury by Shanshan Li, Qingfen Tian, Gang Ding, Yuqin Sun, Zhongkai Hao, Xu Wang, Chenming Zhang, Yuan Tao

“…Group A was given oxygen goggles every day (the oxygen flow rate was 3 L/min, once a day, 2 hours each time); group B was given nasal inhalation of oxygen every day (the oxygen flow rate was 3 L/min, once a day, 2 hours each time); and group C did not receive any treatment and was healed naturally. We found that the group A, which received oxygen supply via goggles, showed the best eye recovery. …”
