After removing the stitches from eye corner surgery, it is important to prevent infection and pay attention to diet. Rest adequately and avoid strenuous activities. Keep the surgical area dry for a prolonged period after suture removal to prevent inflammation. Eat light, bland foods and avoid spicy or irritating foods. Keep the incision site clean to prevent infection. If there is scabbing or pus, gently wipe the area with sterile saline solution.
