Pre Operative Question Answer

Can I wear contact lenses after blepharoplasty?

After undergoing blepharoplasty, it is generally advised to avoid wearing contact lenses during the initial stages of your recovery. The surgery can cause temporary swelling, discomfort, and dryness in the eye area, which can make wearing contacts uncomfortable and potentially interfere with the healing process. It is best to consult with your plastic surgeon, who can provide personalized recommendations and guidance on when it is safe to resume wearing contact lenses based on your individual healing progress.
