A member asked:

What to do if i just had my eye enucleation 4 days ago, can i dye my hair already?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: You will have an eye patch at this point as the socket heals but you certainly can have your hair dyed if that is part of your personal cosmetic routine. You might add an additional layer of protection around the socket area to prevent any dye from leaking into the healing socket.
