Cataract surgery usually requires a hospital stay of one to three days, but the exact length of stay may vary depending on hospital regulations, the type of surgery, the patient's physical condition, and postoperative recovery.

Cataract surgery requires hospitalization for several days

In general, cataract surgery is a relatively simple eye surgery, with a short surgery time and a quick recovery. Before surgery, patients need a series of preoperative examinations to ensure the safety and feasibility of surgery. After surgery, patients need to stay in the hospital for observation for a period of time so that doctors can deal with possible complications and discomfort.

If the patient is in good health and recovers smoothly after surgery, the length of stay may be shortened accordingly. However, if the patient develops complications or requires additional treatment and care,

the exact length of stay may be determined according to the patient's specific conditions and doctor's recommendations.
