I'm afraid in his original post Russ did say to put the *negative* electrode in the pool of tears near the eye if you wanted to use a silver wire to disinfect the area. I believe he was mistaken.
As far as I know the silver does come off the anode, or positive terminal. The negative electrode or cathode accumulates the fluffy treeing (in LVDC systems) as positively charged silver particles come close, accept an electron, and become neutral, falling out of suspension. However, I hope *both* of you gents will remember that e-mail requires a serious effort to avoid either giving *or* taking offense. Any hostility, abruptness or rudeness is greatly magnified in the absense of facial expression or body language. A great deal thicker skin and greater tolerance is required all around.
