I got a chalazion surgery and i going swimming next week. So, can i swim even if i put goggles and make sure that the chlorine doesnt toutch my eyes? Plus can i tan?
Hi. Most patients can return to normal activity a week after chalazion removal. Check with your surgeon to be sure though. Best regards, Ira Vidor, M.D.
I would ask your surgeon if it is ok to go swimming. 1 week may be a little early after surgery, but again, I would defer to your surgeon.
