What Causes Redness On Cheeks After Undergoing Cataract Surgery?
I had cataract surgery 1 day ago everything was fine I had a follow up visit today and it was fine. I now at 9:00 pm have redness on my cheek and below the eye on the cheek that is hot to the touch. Is this something to worry about? I am dropping antibiotics 4 times daily along with 2 other types of drops that are twice daily. My Dr. Office is closed. Is it safe to wait till morning?
Hello I would suggest you to visit your doctor as soon as possible. It may be infection of your eyes. If your doctor is not available then you can visit to any other doctor so that you could get treatment as early as possible. It may be a serious condition if not treated soon. Hope this is clear to you Thanks Dr Ratnesh
