Post-operative Corneal Care

Post-operative corneal care involves following specific steps after eye surgery to ensure proper healing of the cornea, the clear front part of your eye. Patients should use prescribed eye drops to prevent infection and reduce inflammation. It’s important to avoid rubbing the eyes and to wear sunglasses outdoors to protect them from light and debris. Regular check-ups with the eye doctor will help monitor healing progress. Patients should also avoid swimming and applying makeup near the eyes for a specified period. Adhering to these guidelines promotes recovery and helps maintain good vision.
