You will most likely have three follow-up appointments after your cataract surgery. Your first follow-up appointment is the day after your surgery. We also recommend that you have a driver for this visit. This is not an absolute requirement, but is probably safer for you because of possible blurred vision.
After Surgery to Treat Cataracts. Most people experience minimal discomfort after cataract surgery. A mild painkiller, such as acetaminophen (Tylenol), can be taken if necessary. Some redness, scratchiness, or discharge from the eye may occur during the first days after surgery. In addition, you may notice a few black spots or shapes (called floaters) drifting through your field of vision. In some cases, you will need to wear a protective patch over your eye for 24 hours after surgery.
