Immediate Post-Surgery Period (First Few Weeks)

1. Avoid Pressure on the Nose: Right after surgery, your nose will be very delicate. Glasses can put pressure on the nasal bridge, potentially affecting the healing process and the final shape of your nose.
2. Use Alternatives: Consider using contact lenses if you can. If you must wear glasses, your surgeon might provide a splint or special tape to keep the glasses off your nose.

First Month to Six Weeks

1. Follow-Up Visits: Regular check-ups with your surgeon are crucial. They will monitor your healing and advise when it’s safe to start wearing glasses normally.
2. Nasal Splint: If you need to wear glasses, your surgeon might recommend a nasal splint to distribute the weight of the glasses away from the healing areas.

After Six Weeks

1. Gradual Transition: Once your surgeon gives the green light, you can start wearing glasses again. Initially, you might need to limit the time you wear them to ensure your nose can handle the pressure.
2. Adjustments: You might need to adjust the fit of your glasses to ensure they don’t press too hard on your nose.

Long-Term Considerations

1. Nose Pads: Consider using glasses with soft nose pads to minimize pressure.
2. Regular Check-Ups: Continue to have periodic check-ups to ensure your nose is healing properly and there are no long-term issues.

General Tips
