What to expect on your first night after surgery

Please KEEP your eye shield on at all times. If tears flow out, gently dab them with a clean tissue.

Your eyes might feel a bit irritated or gritty, similar to having sand or dust in them. You could also experience some mild soreness or pain, which you can manage with the prescribed pain reliever.

Your Guide to the First Week After Surgery

1. Be sure to AVOID getting water into your eyes for approximately one week. While you can shower as usual, take extra precaution to prevent water from splashing or entering your eye. Use a saline solution to gently clean the skin around your eye to maintain cleanliness and help prevent infection.

2. Proper Healing with Prescribed Eye Drops: Use your eye drops consistently and correctly.

Tobradex (Antibiotic Eye Drops): Use for no more than one week unless your doctor advises otherwise. Apply 4 times a day (morning, midday, evening, and before bed).

Vislube (Artificial Tears): Use every 2 hours as needed for dryness, and we recommend using it for up to 1-3 months depending on how your eye is healing. Feel free to use it more often if your eyes are very dry.

Important: Apply Tobradex first, wait 5 minutes, then apply Vislube.

3. Use a saline solution to gently clean around your eyes two times daily, specifically in the morning and before you go to sleep.

4. Eye Shield: Please wear the eye shield we've given you every night while you sleep for the first week. You can wash it with soap and water to use again the next night.

5. Swimming: Please avoid swimming for at least two weeks after your procedure. AVOID swimming in the sea, and diving for at least a month.

6. Don't worry if your vision seems blurry, hazy, or changes throughout the day – this is normal in the early stages. Your vision should gradually get clearer each day. If your eyes feel dry, use the Vislube drops.

7. If you have any urgent questions or concerns about your eye care or these instructions, please don't hesitate to contact your consultant right away.
