I am 30 and considering ICL surgery, but I’m worried about recovery time. How soon can I return to work, screen usage, or sports after the procedure, and are there any strict activity restrictions?

Recovery is relatively quick, with most patients returning to desk work and screen use within 1–2 days. Avoiding swimming, contact sports, or dusty environments for a few weeks is usually recommended. Vision may fluctuate slightly during the first few days, but most daily activities resume quickly. Surgeons provide a personalized plan, and following these guidelines helps ensure smooth healing while minimizing stress and downtime.
