How soon after a Revision Septoplasty can I wear my eye glasses and blow my nose?

If you just had a septoplasty there is no reason why you should not be able to wear glasses as they sit on the nasal bones and the septum is all internal cartilage and bone not directly related to the nasal bones, of course ask your surgeon to be sure. As far as nose blowing, be very careful, we tell our patients blow gently after two weeks of healing. Once again check with your surgeons instructions.Hope this helps.

Dear xonicole101, It is always recommended to double check your operating surgeon's instructions for post op restrictions, but in our office we typically allow patients to gently blow their noses at 3 weeks, and to avoid wearing glasses for 6 weeks. If you have lighter weight frames then some patients are able to wear them earlier than 6 weeks. but I would confirm with your surgeon. Good luck!
