Not immediately after surgery. Most surgeons advise against lifting heavy weights or returning to vigorous sports for at least two weeks after surgery. Light aerobic activity, however, (such as using a StairMaster, ergometer, or treadmill) can be resumed within a week or two.

However, for someone who has previously had LASIK and is now considering cataract surgery, it is not so simple. LASIK reshapes the cornea and corneal measurements are used to calculate the intraocular lens used to replace the cataract. Unfortunately, the calculations currently used do not work as well after LASIK (or other refractive surgery).
