28 Validation of a closed system for dispensing serum eye drops.

Introduction: NHS Blood and Transplant Tissue and Eye Services (TES) offer a serum eyedrop (SE) service to patients suffering from severe ocular surface disease. SE are prepared from serum collected at blood donation sessions; the serum is diluted 1:1 with physiological saline. Formerly, 3ml aliquots of diluted serum were aliquoted into glass bottles in a Grade B clean room.
