Water in the eye after a laser eye treatment can be worrying. You may be concerned if you notice water in your eye during the healing phase. We’ll explain what you can do now.

Keep calm

First, it’s important to stay calm. A small amount of water in the eye is usually harmless. However, there are a few things to keep in mind to avoid further jeopardizing the healing of your eyes.

Avoid rubbing your eyes.

After your laser eye treatment, your eyes will be sensitive. Rubbing your eyes can cause irritation. In some cases, the corneal flap may even become displaced. If water gets into your eye, resist the urge to rub it.

Use eye drops

Eye drops can help flush away any water and soothe your eye. Use the drops prescribed by your surgeon. They are specifically designed to support your recovery.

Keep your eye clean.

Gently pat the area around your eye with a clean, soft cloth to remove excess water. Avoid soap or facial cleansers near your eyes, as they can cause further irritation.

Monitor for signs of infection.

It is important to be vigilant for signs of infection. If you notice increasing redness, swelling, or discharge, contact your surgeon immediately. Prompt intervention can prevent complications.

Follow the care instructions

Your surgeon has given you specific postoperative care instructions. Follow them closely. Avoid sports and take the prescribed medications. It is important that you attend all follow-up appointments. Your ophthalmologist can ensure that your eyes heal as planned.
