- यदि आपकी दाहिनी आंख की सर्जरी हुई है तो आप दाहिनी तरफ करवट लेकर न सोएं। यां तो आप सीधा लेट जाएँ यां फिर दूसरी तरफ करवट लेकर लेटें।
- आप गर्दन की नीचे आराम से नहाएँ, पर सिर धोने के लिए एक हफ्ते का परहेज करें ।
- कला चश्मा हमेशा पहने टंकी गलती से आपका अपना हाथ आपकी आंख पर न लगे
- सर्जरी के बाद आई ड्रॉप्स डालना सबसे ज़रूरी है । आई ड्राप डालने से पहले अपने हाथों को साबुन एवं पानी से अच्छी तर्हां धोएं
- आई ड्राप सिर्फ उस आंख में डालने जिसमे आपकी सर्जरी हुई है, दूसरी आंख में आई ड्राप न डालें
- अगर आप कोई और दवाई खातें हैं जैसे की हार्ट की, बी पी की, शुगर की इत्यादि तो कृपया उसे जरी रखें उसे बंद करने की कोई ज़रूरत नहीं है
- कई बार ऑपरेशन के बाद आंख में हल्की सी रडक रहती है, ये सामान्य बार हम इसकी चिंता न करें
Days after cataract surgery
It is normal for vision to be blurry in the beginning – your eye needs to heal and adjust. Vision will normally begin to improve within a few days of the surgery. It’s also normal for your eye to feel itchy and to experience mild discomfort for a couple of days – your doctor will ask you to wear an eye patch or protective shield at night to ensure you don’t rub your eye while you sleep. This discomfort should disappear after a few days.
Weeks after cataract surgery
While everyone is different, the average experience for the weeks following cataract surgery involves a gradual recovery of the eye. Adjustments in vision will occur for a few months after surgery.
Tips for post-cataract surgery
- Don’t do any strenuous activities for a few weeks. Avoid rigorous exercise and heavy lifting.
- Don’t drive. The length of time after cataract surgery before you can drive depends on a number of factors – your doctor will tell you when it is safe to resume driving.
- Follow your doctor’s orders regarding any antibiotic and anti-inflammatory eye drops. These are important to prevent infection and inflammation and ensure proper healing. If you have difficulty in administering them, get a friend or family member to help you out.
- Stay away from dusty areas. It’s a great idea to have your house vacuumed and cleaned before surgery, as your eyes will be sensitive to airborne allergens such as dust.
- Don’t rub your eye. Eye rubbing is a quick way to develop a nasty infection. It’s never a good idea, even when you aren’t recovering from surgery.
- Don’t swim. It’s best to avoid swimming or hot tubs for a week after surgery.
- Don’t wear make-up. Ask your doctor when you can resume doing so.
