Dr. O no longer answers questions on this site

1. There is no way to tell you how long it will take to go away.
2. Your eye surgeon should be able to tell you if you can fly safely. Ask him/her.

I was wondering how long does it take for t to go away.
I'm traveling soon and going up into high altitude.
Its 10 weeks after my surgery.
My gas bubble is very small, it's only visual on when I'm laying down facing the ceiling. There are multiple tiny has bubbles.

Am I safe for traveling?

It depends on the type and the size.  It can be a few days to weeks.
