A member asked:
How long should i wait to wear contacts after i have been treated for corneal ulcers?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: You need to ask you doctor. It depends if you completely healed and its safe for you to wear contacts. Typically cornea ulcer may takes more than a week to recover. You need to throw away all you used contacts, solutions and cases.
