After laser eye surgery

This is a general overview of the nursing procedures after the laser eye surgery procedure [because individual needs and surgical techniques vary widely].

After the operation, the patient usually uses antibiotic eye drops and eye drops in the next few days, and may also need to wear a protective eye mask.

In the first few days and hours after surgery, it is important not to touch or rub your eyes, try and rest as much as possible and use any prescription drugs. This is a common and good procedure for an ophthalmologist who performs surgery immediately after any surgery.

Then further appointments are usually recommended at the following intervals: 1 week, 3 weeks, 3, 6 and 9 months, then the last 1 year. Of course the frequency depends on the progress made. When the eye heals, the patient will find some fluctuations and blurred vision after surgery for up to six months.

Within 3-4 days, most normal daily activities such as housework, driving and shopping can be resumed.

After 2-3 weeks, most sports activities, such as running, cycling aerobics, can be recommended [of course, wearing any commonly recommended eye protection]

Hard contact sports such as boxing and football martial arts are best kept for 3 months or longer after eye surgery to ensure the best chance of complete recovery. Post-operative laser eye surgery after your surgeon recommends a care plan that is critical to the overall success of any laser eye surgery.
