Generally, dacryocystitis surgery does not damage the nose, so there's no need to worry too much. Currently, eye surgeries are relatively safe. After surgery, make sure to get adequate rest and sufficient sleep. You should develop good eye-use habits, which will benefit your eyes. Pay attention to your diet and eat more fresh vegetables and fruits.
