I reviewed your history.
You can watch TV after cross linking surgery.
But smoking hookah or smoking in any form needs to be avoided as healing will be delayed because of these.
It needs atleast 6-8 weeks for complete healing of the corneal tissue following any surgery.
Hence smoking hookah needs to be avoided for 8 weeks.
Hope I have answered your question and the information is helpful to you.
