Wound Classification for Eye Procedures

It is my understanding from the criteria in evaluating surgical wound classification that all eye surgical procedures are considered Clean.

Another nurse told me that Entropion and Ectropion repair procedures are clean/contaminated. I disagree. I posed the question to ASORN (American Society of Ophthalmic nurses) but have yet to receive a reply. Any thoughts on this? Thanks for any feedback.
