Approximately 100 surgical fires take place in the United States each year. Recently, an ophthalmic lubricant was blamed for burning a child's eye while oxygen was administered during surgery. This study sought to determine whether four common ocular lubricants would ignite and sustain combustion in an oxygen-rich or standard room air environment.
