My vision is slightly blurry since my rhinoplasty, is this a concern?

December 15, 2017
Asked By:nanoooyaaa

It has been ten days since my rhinoplasty surgery. I have noticed slight blurry vision in my left eye sometimes it gets teary. Reading isn’t as clear as I see in my right eye. I have asked an assistant they had said it might have been from swelling and I should continue to take ibuprofen. I doubt this solves the initial eye issue. Is this normal and do I need to wait longer. Thank you,

Stephen J. Ronan, MD, FACS says:

Thank you for your question. Typically, nasal telangiectasias (aka spider veins) respond very well to laser treatments that target red lesions and it is fine to have a laser treatment 3 months before a rhinoplasty/septoplasty. It would be best to avoid laser treatments to the nose 6-8 weeks...
