A quick recovery, minimal risk of complications, and good results depend on proper care following an eye procedure. That’s why it is essential to follow all your specialist’s instructions carefully.
- Follow the prescribed schedule for applying eye drops (antibiotics, anti-inflammatory, or moisturizing). Hygiene is especially important — wash your hands before applying drops and maintain overall cleanliness. Failure to follow this may lead to serious infections and complications.
- Protect the eye from contamination and injury.
- Avoid dirty or dusty environments.
- Wearing protective sunglasses is recommended when weather conditions require it.
- Do not engage in strenuous physical activity — avoid heavy lifting, swimming, and active sports in the first few days after the procedure.
- Do not wash your eyes with tap water.
- Do not use makeup, lotions, or other cosmetics during the period recommended by your doctor.
- Avoid getting soap or shampoo in your eye
- Attend all follow-up appointments — they are important for monitoring the healing process.
It is normal to feel slight discomfort after an eye procedure. However, if you experience:
- Severe pain
