A member asked:

How long am i suppose to wait to have my eyes tested after giving birth.?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: You can wait 1-2 months if you want a check for ordinary problems but if you are having redness, vision loss or anything unexplained, then see you ophthalmologist as soon as you can. Most will acomodate the new baby and baby carriages, etc. So you don't need to get a babysitter.
