Proper post-operative care is crucial to prevent scar formation after eye corner surgery. For a short period after the procedure, it's important to carefully care for the eye corner area and avoid exposing the site to water, which could lead to inflammation or infection. During recovery, avoid prolonged use of smartphones and electronic devices to ensure adequate eye rest, promoting wound healing and minimizing the risk of scarring.
