Sterilization of lens fungus



Hello,

If one believes in sterilization techniques to arrest growth and prevent
regrowth it might be best to consider ethylene oxide sterilization. This
is a well proven and accepted technique to sterilize medical instruments
including sigmoidoscopes, colonoscoscopes and bronchoscopes which
contain delicate optical components.

It is very unlikely that damage will occur on a still usable lens. I am sure
that with proper explanation contacts can be found to add a lens to a
routine load of instruments.

This method of course will not remove any already existing growth,
but will kill it.

GR.
