Recovery after cataract surgery

After cataract surgery, if there is no corneal edema, no obvious postoperative reaction in the anterior chamber, no serious corneal astigmatism, no underlying disease or fundus disease, the next day can recover better vision. If the patient has a large corneal wound after surgery, it takes at least one week for the astigmatism to become smaller and the vision will improve. It takes at least one month for the wound to completely close. For patients with corneal edema after surgery, the recovery time of vision varies according to the degree of edema, basically in three days to two weeks. In addition, if the patient has fundus disease or hypertension, diabetes and other basic diseases, postoperative vision will also be improved than before, but how much can be recovered depends on the patient's fundus.
