Pre-op blood oxygen level-210 minutes after the glasses are put on

saturation measurement from finger tip by pulse oximeter. The avarage value is above %90.

Pre-op Anxiety Score-2(STAI-State)10 minutes after the glasses put on

Patients fill out the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-State ten minutes after wearing green or translucent glasses in the dental unit. The range of Scala is 0-10. A lower score means better results.
