Cataract surgery is now mainly ultrasonic emulsification combined with lens implantation, which has a short operation time and quick postoperative recovery, and vision is usually significantly improved and restored on the second day after surgery when the gauze is removed.
After cataract surgery, if there is no corneal edema, significant postoperative reaction in the anterior chamber, large corneal astigmatism, or fundus disease, better vision can be restored the next day.
If corneal edema, combined or induced fundus disease occurs after surgery, the recovery time will be extended accordingly, which varies from patient to patient.
Patients who need cataract surgery are recommended to go to regular hospitals to ensure safety and results. Post-operative care and follow-up should follow the doctor’s instructions. If there are any sudden changes in vision, redness, swelling, pain and other symptoms, they should consult the doctor immediately.
