What Is The Treatment For Periorbital Puffiness?

HAD BOTH EYES OPERATED ON FOR CATARACTS, FIRST END OCTOBER, AND SECOND 8TH OF NOVEMBER. WHY DO I STILL HAVE PUFFY EYES, PARTICULARLY UNDER EYES. I NEVER HAD THIS BEFORE. WHAT TO DO TO GET RID OF THIS, AND HOW LONG DOES THIS TAKE. IS THIS NORMAL AFTER CATARACT SURGERY?

Hello
Welcome to Health care Magic.

I reviewed your history. It seems from the history that you are having puffiness of eyes following cataract surgery. This can be because of inflammation caused by surgery. This will resolve as the inflammation subsides.
The use of anti-inflammatory drugs will provide speedy recovery.

Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Hope this is helpful to you.
Do write back to me for further questions.
Thank you
With regards
