How long does a cataract surgery patient have to use eyedrops and why? Antibiotic eyedrops are used after cataract surgery to prevent infection and steroid and NSAID (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug) eyedrops are used to reduce and eliminate inflammation. Typically, the antibiotic drops are used for about a week, while the anti-inflammatory drops are used three to six weeks or longer in some cases.
1 Unlike cable, fiber is not easily affected by water. Fiber-optic technology is practically weather-proof.  Fiber optics use light to transmit information, so the networks can transmit more information between the central office and the home - faster. This means faster fiber-optic Internet speeds, sharper fiber-optic television and clearer calls with fiber-optic home phone.
Fiber has many benefits over cable other than speed. Since fiber optic cables send data faster, theyâre better suited for long distance communication, which is why they power much of the internet. Theyâre also less likely to go out during a power outage as thereâs no electricity involved.
