How long after ReLEx® SMILE® can I start exercising again?

Doctor's Answer

Most patients can resume cycling, jogging, gym and yoga 1 week after ReLEx SMILE.

You are however advised to avoid water sports, hot yoga, jacuzzi and sauna for 1 month as the water is not clean enough.

Also avoid contact sports like boxing, martial arts and badminton for 1 month as we are concerned something or someone may hit your eye.

Do continue to use lubricating eyedrops generously, follow medication instructions and have your eyes reviewed by your eye surgeon in a timely manner. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
