A member asked:
I'm getting cataract surgery in two days can i get a tattoo ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: This is one of those questions that is easy to answer. Only take one risk at a time. Wait until 3 weeks after cataract surgery, then you can go and take a risk on getting HIV, HBV or HCV by getting a tattoo.. be very picky on where you get the tattoo done. Best wishes
