will i get a patch over my eye after cataract surgery
An eye patch is also a good idea at night initially, so that the eye does not get rubbed accidentally as you sleep. If cataract surgery is required in both eyes, the doctor will normally leave a few weeks to a month between surgeries.This allows the first eye to heal before the second cataract removal.fter cataract surgery, approximately 95% of patients end up with clear vision once again. However, there are some minor complications that can be fairly common and should resolve in a few weeks' time. These include: 1  Swelling of the cornea or the retina. 2  Increased pressure in the eye. 3  Droopy eyelids.
