Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2
Rationale: The eye and orbit should be cleaned regularly to remove any exudates that may be present. A lubricant is not necessary as it could cause damage to the prosthesis. Draping the client is not necessary, but providing privacy by pulling the curtain or shutting the door to the room may make the client more comfortable. The area should be gently dried once cleaned, but firmly patting dry may cause damage.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 3
Rationale 1: Assist the client to a sitting position-not a prone position-because this is a more natural position.
Rationale 2: The skin should be pulled taut with the nondominant hand-not the dominant-because this provides uniform shaving.
Rationale 3: Rinsing the razor after each stroke keeps the cutting edge clean.
Rationale 4: Short strokes should be used-not long strokes-because this provides for a closer shave without irritation.
