Hello! My granny is really crazy. Even though she is 60 and about to have a cataract surgery, she wants to know how soon she will be able to wear mascara after the procedure! Please, help!!! She won’t stop talking about this?
Hi there! You are lucky to have a granny like that. Mine just sits at home and complains, nothing else. As for the make up, powders, foundations, eyeliner and mascara often make their way into the eye, and should not be used until the second week. But lipsticks and eyebrow pencils are OK. Two weeks after the surgery, she may wear what ever she wants.
