Haven’t had it done but whatever the doctor says, do it.
You don’t want problems with the incision...
Schedule it for the no wind season!

Definitely follow your surgeon's instructions. I normally do the eyes 2 weeks apart. If everything is healing as expected, I let people return to normal activity in 1 week.

Thanks for the replies. Yes will def follow the surgeons instructions! So I could be looking at getting back on the water as soon as one week after the second eye?
