What if I sneeze during cataract surgery?
DO’S: Most normal activities are acceptable immediately after surgery and will not harm the eye, for example shopping, housework, gardening, going to the cinema, climbing the stairs, watching TV and reading. Bending over to pick something up is perfectly safe. Coughing, sneezing and blowing your nose are not harmful.

How long do cataract lenses last?
The lens that the surgeon implants during cataract surgery is durable and will last a lifetime, according to Mayo Clinic.
