Elevate your head on 2-3 pillows for 4 nights following your surgery.

Tear duct surgery

Accepted Answer

Do not pick or blow your nose or pull or cut anything out of the nose until allowed by Dr Su.

Question 4

If your surgery involves a skin graft

Do not remove the dressing to the eye. This will be removed at your review appointment. This means that you will have that eye patched for about a week and you cannot drive with one eye patched.
