After full femtosecond laser surgery patients do not pay attention to rubbing the eyes, you need to pay attention to observe whether there is redness in the eyes, eye foreign body sensation, vision loss and other symptoms, if any uncomfortable symptoms, timely go to the ophthalmology department of the hospital, if there is a corneal flap displacement, you need to reset through surgery.
After full femtosecond laser surgery, if the patient accidentally rubs the eyes in the early postoperative period, it may lead to poor healing of the surgical incision site, so it is not recommended that the patient rub the eyes in the early postoperative period. If the patient just rubbed his eyes gently and there is no other discomfort in his eyes, he can observe and follow up, and no special treatment is needed.
If the patient rubs the eye with greater force, affecting the healing of the surgical incision site, resulting in redness of the eye, foreign body sensation in the eye and other discomfort symptoms, accompanied by vision loss, the patient should seek medical attention in a timely manner. If corneal flap displacement occurs, patients can be surgically reset, but also follow the doctor’s instructions to use tobramycin eye drops to control inflammation and relieve eye discomfort.
It is recommended that patients follow the doctor’s instructions for postoperative care after full femtosecond surgery, have regular checkups, and seek prompt medical attention when discomfort occurs.
