HIV in intraocular fluids (e.g. vitreous humor)

Hi, my question is regarding the concentration of HIV in fluids within and surrounding the eye.  I work as a researcher, and work predominantly with human eye tissue.  Generally speaking, we are supposed to be notified if donor tissue has some sort of infectious disease; however, we receive some of our specimens second hand, and so do not always have complete medical information.  As a researcher, exposure is kept to a minimum, and gloves/lab coat are always worn when working with the tissue.  Also, much of the time, the tissue is worked on within a bio-hood, which places some plastic between the face of the worker and the specimen.  Nonetheless, inevitably water or saline or glycerol (the latter is used for specimen dehydration) that has been in contact with the tissue will occasionally splash or spill onto skin, and, in the rarest of occurrences, into eyes.  Obviously, contact of contaminated fluids with the eye should be reported and dealt with using an eye-wash.  I also know that most such exposures to skin are inconsequential, and need only be washed with soap and water and possibly sprayed/swabbed with alcohol.

Ultimately, my question is whether the fluid either within (vitreous humor) or surrounding the eye in an infected donor is known to have a high enough concentration of HIV or other such viruses to be worthy of concern.

Thank you very much for your time.

The answer is yes but there is no concerns of contracting HIV.
