Do you have to be face down most of the day? Was your surgery for a macular hole or a pucker? Thank you.

I didn't have to be face down. My surgery was because of bad floaters.

I had to stay face down for 5 days. It was brutal, but the doc said I could sleep on my side not on my back and had to stay face down other than that. I got a chair for massage therapists, where you can relax face down and that helped a lot. It was brutal, but I'm very glad I did it. My vision is greatly improved.
