Keep the wound clean to prevent infection. Take oral antibiotics routinely. Take care not to wet the wound when washing your face. If there is blood crust or discharge on the wound, wipe it with sterile saline or medical alcohol.
Apply cold compresses with ice packs for 48 hours after surgery and hot compresses after 48 hours with mild pressure, but the pressure should not be high to avoid damaging the eye. Take care not to subject the eye to external impact and avoid intense exercise or changeable emotions. It is best to rest in a semi-recumbent position with the pillow cushioned so as not to aggravate the swelling of the wound by overworking the eye or positioning the head too low.
