How soon can you get back to your normal routine after cataract surgery?
The surgeons of Eye Surgery Today discuss what recovery can look like after modern cataract surgery and when patients may be able to return to activities like walking, weightlifting, yoga, swimming, wearing eye makeup, and playing sports.
While lighter activities may be possible relatively quickly, more strenuous exercise can require additional recovery time. Water activities may also require extra precautions because of the potential risk of infection, while contact sports carry concerns about trauma to the healing eye.
The doctors also explain why recovery recommendations can vary between surgeons and why it’s important to follow the specific instructions given by your own surgeon.
