Default Cataract Surgery - Shooting
Any experience with shooting related restrictions recommended by the surgeon?

2 weeks before shooting was all I was told. Shot 7mm-08 at 2-week mark, no problem. Sure helps to be able to see the target clearly now.

In my case, light duty for two weeks, avoid any jarring or impact. It took almost two weeks for my vision to stabilize after the surgery.

Both eyes done at the same time? Did you ask about “goggles’?
