What can I do about dryness and tearing after cataract and glaucoma surgery?

Patient: Description (onset time, main symptoms, hospital visited, etc.): Hello Professor Wang: My father, 69 years old, had cataract surgery on his right eye in April and glaucoma surgery on his right eye in August this year, his eyesight has recovered after the surgery, but both eyes have been dry and tearful and cannot be opened, his forehead is swollen and tight, he is dizzy and has slight headache. My father has mild hypertension and has been taking medication to control his blood pressure normally, and it has been half a year since the surgery on both eyes, and the tests have been done and eye medication is being ordered. The dryness, tearing, blurriness, inability to open and dizziness of the eyes are seriously hindering my life.

I would like to thank Professor Wang! If cataract and glaucoma surgery goes well, all eye medications can be stopped about one month after surgery. Eye medications used for a long time can also trigger some symptoms such as dryness and blurriness of the eyes, so it is recommended to stop using them for a period of time for observation. It is recommended to stop taking the medication for a period of time.
