Will reading/studying strain my eye after surgery?
exoticflower
I recently had eye surgery to have a freckle removed from the white of my eye. The surgery was 4 days ago. I have exams this week and will be doing lots of reading and studying, will this strain my eye or affect its healing process?
Thank you

But if I cry, or like if tears form in my eyes, my eye stings abit because the wound in my eye is still fresh. Is that common?

No unless it leads to dryness. Blink and use tears if uncomfortable.

Would it be better if I were to wear an eye patch while studying?
