Hello! Thank you for your questio.
As far as I can understand from your question We recommend that you do not wear glasses for 3 months after surgery. It is important to consult with the surgeon who performed your surgery about this matter, as each surgeon has their own procedure.
It would be better face to face consultation.
Best Regards!

This is the recommendation that we give to our patients. If you need to wear your glasses after your splint is removed, there are several options. You can ask your surgeon to give you an unused protective splint to put on your nose while you're wearing glasses, or you could consider purchasing devices for exactly this purpose, on Amazon. I hope this helps! Sincerely, Dr Joseph
