Single-use disposable plastics and other materials have increased in use since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. This generates increased waste and cost in eye care. Dr. Emily Schehlein and Dr. Alan Robin discuss their recent Ophthalmology Glaucoma editorial, "Should We Use Disposable Tonometers and Gonioprisms in the Office?" with recommendations on how and why eye care professionals should clean and reuse tonometry tips and gonioscopy lenses to reduce ophthalmic waste. Should We Use Disposable Tonometers and Gonioprisms in the Office? Schehlein, Emily M., Robin, Alan L. et al. Ophthalmology Glaucoma, Volume 8, Issue 2, 109 – 111.
