    Did any of you guys ever wondered why surgeons wear green cloth during surgery? Why they dont wear colors like red or white or any other color?

    Well it is because green is the most pleasant color to the eyes and it is the color that soothing to the eye.

    So my dear friends "GO GREEN"

    Why dont they just wear RED, or Black :D

    EDIT: From now on, I decided to only visit Female doctors, and ask for female surgeons, and Suggest they wear NOTHING during surgery :p

    I think it is customary to wear green because you can really identify surgeons from non surgeons.. Besides green is Abundant in nature, green signifies growth, renewal, health, and environment.

    People quickly became aware that blood was more impressive on white clothes, and that the light was reflected in excess by white during the operating procedure. White was therefore abandoned, and blue or green became the colours of choice.

    Green scrub suit being used provided a high-contrast environment, reduced eye fatigue, and made bright red blood splashes less conspicuous.

    You can always give it a try and ask lady surgeon not to wear anything and find out what happen.
