After a rhinoplasty procedure, it’s generally recommended to avoid any activities or things that could put pressure on the nose or cause injury to the nose for at least the first few weeks following the surgery. This includes avoiding strenuous activities, sports, and any activities that could cause the nose to be bumped or hit.
Wearing contact lenses after a rhinoplasty is generally safe, but it’s important to follow your surgeon’s instructions regarding when it’s safe to start wearing them again. They may advise you to wait for a certain period of time before wearing them, usually a few weeks, so the nose can heal properly.
It’s important to note that if you have dry eyes or other eye conditions that make it difficult to wear contact lenses, it may be more challenging to wear them after a rhinoplasty. If you experience discomfort or any other issues with your contact lenses, it’s essential to contact your surgeon and your eye doctor to have them checked.
It’s essential to consult with your plastic surgeon regarding the timing of when you can wear contact lenses after rhinoplasty. They can advise you on the best time to do it and to make sure it won’t compromise the results of the surgery.
