Most people will be able to resume normal activities as little as 24 hours after surgery and notice an improvement in their vision straight away. At the clinic, you will be given three types of eye drops to use at home: antibiotic drops, lubricating drops and steroid drops. You will also receive clear eye shields to wear at night for the first night after surgery. We will give you full instructions on how to use them, as well as written details for reference. It is important to follow the  instructions you are given to help your eyes to recover as quickly as possible.
