How can i take care of the eye after cataract surgery?

Follow instructions: Your surgeon will give you detailed instructions, and usually they are given in writing too. You want to keep your hands away from your eyes, and take the antibiotic and steroid eyedrops as directed. More info: http://www.2020vision.Com/procedures_cataract_surgery.Html.

After cataract : After cataract surgery, you should use your eye drops, wear an eye shield at night, avoid rubbing eye/ strenuous activity/ heavy lifting/ bending, and keep your followup appointments.

Follow instructions: Follow your surgeons instructions. Once healed, at about one month, you do not need to do anything special or more than you did before the cataract surgery.

Use drops : Following cataract surgery, most ophthalmologists prescribe eye drops - including anti-inflammatory and antibiotics. It is important to use them as directed. I tell my patients to avoid eyeliner makeup for a week and avoid firm finger to eye contact. Otherwise no major restrictions with the latest laser cataract or traditional cataract surgery

Post Cataract Care: After Small Incision Cataract Surgery, most eyeMD recommend no bending, lifting heavy things, straining for at least 3-5 days w/ shield on at night time/when sleeping; no swimming with eyes open under water as well. If you had an ECCE, most extend this to 7-10days depending if there is no wound leak at the suture site. Keep eye clean w/gentle lid hygiene when MD says: see: eyedoc2020.blogspot.com
