Follow your post-operative instructions, avoid rubbing the eyes, and keep them well lubricated. Preservative free lubrication drops work very well.
You need adequate vitamin C level and adequate tear production for best healing.
Nothing really helps your eyes heal faster after surgery, but there are things you can do to insure a smooth and successful recovery. First, take all of your prescribed medication as directed. Second, follow all instructions given by your doctor. Avoid doing things that could cause complications, such as being too rough, not wearing protective eyewear, or failing to show up for follow up appointments. Hope that helps you on the path to a quick recovery.
