Normally speaking you can move normally about a month after retinal oil removal surgery.
During retinal surgery, it may be necessary to inject silicone oil into the eye to press against the retina and promote retinal reset. Most patients will have a second surgery to remove the silicone oil from the eye three to six months after the surgery, when the retina has fully reset.
After removing the silicone oil, the patient usually recovers better in about a month, and at this time, the patient will not be too much affected by carrying out normal actions.
It is recommended that the patient undergoes regular checkups after the removal of the silicone oil, so that the doctor can confirm that he or she has recovered well, and then the patient can return to his or her normal activities according to his or her doctor’s recommendations.
