Cataract Surgery Aftercare
We know how important continuity is in your treatment journey at Optimax, so your treating doctor will be actively involved in your aftercare. Optimax offers up to one year free aftercare on non-laser treatments.
On the day following your procedure, you will be seen at your consultation clinic, so you may need to stay overnight at a local hotel if travelling far. You will then attend an appointment one week after each surgery. The doctor will examine your eyes and assess your individual needs and healing.
Aftercare Appointment Programme
The treatment cost includes all aftercare until you are discharged with a satisfactory result.
| Cataract Surgery | |
|---|---|
| 1st visit | 1–2 days |
| 2nd visit | 7–10 days |
| 3rd visit | 4–6 weeks |
| 4th visit | 3–6 months (discharge if satisfactory) |
Your clarity of sight will normally return within days, however it may take up to one month before you can resume normal activities. Patients usually need three days off work, and occasionally up to a week, to ensure that your eyes are well-rested and have begun the healing process.
