  Cataract surgery once considered a major operation. A patient would stay in the hospital at least a week. Recovery rate could take up to six months. After Cataract surgery, you cannot rub eye, resting your eyes frequently. In a month, you do not lower your head too much to do something, not eating acrimony and excitant food, eating more food containing vitamin C, A, B.

  Well, you'd better have a good rest during your recovery. Do not stare computer or television in a long time. You can read books and newspaper to pass your spare time, but just lasts one hour and have a 15--minute rest. No smoking, no drinking. Do not stay up, or your eyes will become strain. Taking a note from your doctor and take medicines on time. If your eyes have something wrong in this period of time for recovery, call your doctor at first.
