redness in eyes after cataract surgery

Redness in the eyes after cataract surgery is a common and usually temporary symptom. It can occur due to mild inflammation, irritation, or the healing process following the procedure. Most cases improve within a few days with prescribed eye drops and proper post-operative care. However, persistent redness, pain, or vision changes should be promptly evaluated by an ophthalmologist to rule out infections or complications, ensuring safe recovery and optimal eye health.
