Ophthalmologic surgery is a surgical procedure performed on the eye or any part of the eye.
The surgeon, operating room nurses, and an anesthesiologist are present for ophthalmologic surgery.

Many ophthalmologic surgeries now use lasers, which decrease the operating time as well as recovery time.
No. It will be too risky. But then your surgeon is the best judge.
