It is possible to eat chocolate after vitrectomy surgery and it does not affect the recovery from the surgery. Vitrectomy is a common surgical procedure used in ophthalmology to treat vitreous and retinal diseases, such as retinal detachment, vitreous hemorrhage and diabetic retinopathy. After vitrectomy surgery patients can eat chocolate, and will not affect the recovery after surgery. The main contraindication in the diet of patients after surgery is to pay attention to not drink alcohol, because drinking alcohol will lead to the dilation of the body’s capillaries, which is easy to cause postoperative hemorrhage. In addition, patients should also pay attention to not touching the eyes with dirty hands and not letting dirty water splash inside the eyes, which can protect the eyes and avoid infection.
