What should I do if I drank alcohol after my myopia surgery?
Disease description:
I just had myopia surgery a few days ago, but I ended up drinking alcohol. I'm really worried—what should I do if I drank after having myopia surgery?
After surgery for nearsightedness, if you have consumed alcohol, it is important to go to the hospital for a check-up as soon as possible. If any abnormalities are detected, prompt treatment should be given to prevent worsening of the condition. Since nearsightedness surgery is performed on the corneal surface and corneal epithelial healing requires time, it is best to avoid staying up late, reduce close-up eye use, and eat nutritious foods. Avoid drinking alcohol and smoking. However, if you must drink, it is generally considered safe to consume alcohol one month after the surgery.
