What to do if your eyes hurt after a hemi-femtosecond procedure

Postoperative trigeminal neuralgia may be caused by postoperative eye pain, improper use of eyes after surgery or wound infection, etc. You should pay attention to rest, use your eyes reasonably, and use medication under the guidance of a professional doctor for treatment if necessary.
1. Postoperative trigeminal neuralgia: Semi-femtosecond surgery is to cut the cornea by femtosecond laser and make corneal flap, which may cause trigeminal nerve reflex pain, which can be gradually relieved after the corneal stroma and epithelial cells are repaired. If the pain is persistent, it can be improved by using Pranoprofen eye drops or recombinant bovine basic fibroblast growth factor ophthalmic gel, etc., together with ice compresses as prescribed by the doctor.
2. Improper use of eyes after surgery: If you don’t pay attention to rest after half-femtosecond surgery and use your eyes with high intensity, which leads to corneal dryness, it may also cause eye pain. You should use your eyes reasonably, have a regular rest and work routine, and use artificial tears, such as sodium vitreous oxide eye drops, to improve the symptoms of eye pain.
3. Postoperative wound infection: If the wound after the hemifacial microsurgery is infected with bacteria that cause eye pain, you can apply tobramycin eye drops according to the doctor’s instructions to carry out anti-infection treatment.
If the eye pain after Hemifacial microsurgery may be caused by a variety of reasons, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital as soon as possible for consultation and examination, a clear diagnosis, and strictly in accordance with the doctor’s instructions for medication and treatment.
