How long is the typical treatment + recovery timeline?
The entire process from arrival to discharge usually takes 5–7 days: 1–2 days for pre-operative exams, the surgery itself (30–60 minutes under general anesthesia), and 2–3 days of post-operative observation. Most patients can return to non-strenuous daily activities within one week, but full recovery of eye alignment and vision stability may take 4–6 weeks. Avoid heavy lifting, swimming, and screen overuse during the first month. Your surgeon will schedule a follow-up at 1 month and 3 months post-surgery.
