The number of days to be discharged from cataract surgery cannot be generalized, but must be determined in the context of the patient’s specific recovery situation.
In general, cataract surgery does not require hospitalization, but for patients with more complicated conditions that do require hospitalization, the number of days to be discharged from the hospital needs to be differentiated according to the patient’s general condition or eye condition. Generally speaking, if the surgery goes smoothly and no other accidents occur, most patients can be discharged about 3 days after the surgery and stop ordering medication about 3 weeks after the surgery. However, if patients have obvious abnormalities after surgery, they need to wait for the indicators to return to normal or controllable range before they can be discharged.
Therefore, the number of days a patient needs to stay in the hospital after cataract surgery needs to vary from person to person and from disease to disease. However, many patients do not need to be hospitalized. If they need to be hospitalized for surgery, it is recommended to go to a regular specialized hospital.
