You can masturbate again after cataract surgery once 7 to 10 days have passed.

After 7 to 10 days you can begin masturbating again after the cataract surgery without any risks of harming your eyes or cataracts.

You can go to the movies after cataract surgery as long as you wait at least 24 hours.

You should wait at least 24 hours after having cataract surgery before going to the movies or watching TV.

Cataract surgery  is the removal of the natural lens of the eye that has developed an opacification, which is referred to as a cataract, and its replacement with an intraocular lens.

During cataract surgery, the clouded lens is removed, and a clear artificial lens is usually implanted.

And in some cases, however, a cataract may be removed without implanting an artificial lens.

Surgical methods used to remove cataracts include: Using an ultrasound probe to break up the lens for removal.

Some immediate complications of cataract surgery are a result of having the surgical procedure.

These include discomfort, bruising and swelling of the eyelid, increased intraocular pressure, and allergic reaction to the steroid or antibiotic drop.

These complications are monitored over time following surgery.

While home, you may be allowed to remove your eye shield, but you should wear it when sleeping for at least a week to prevent eye injury.

Full recovery from cataract surgery should be complete in about a month, although it can take up to three months for your eye to be completely healed.

After cataract surgery your vision can be blurry for up to 48 hours so when you go into have cataract surgery you need to have someone with you to drive you home.

Still your vision may be a bit blurry after 48 hours but it should not be totally blurry and you should be able to see pretty good 48 hours after the cataract surgery.

If you don't see improvements in your vision after 72 hours then you should speak with the doctor about it in case something has gone wrong.

Cataract surgery is pretty successful though and most patients see improvement in the vision in 24 to 48 hours.
