Question 1 of 5
A nurse is planning care for a client 1 day postoperative following a detached retinal repair. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Avoid reading and writing. Following a detached retinal repair, the client should avoid activities that strain the eyes, such as reading and writing, to prevent increased intraocular pressure and potential damage to the surgical site. Reading and writing can lead to eye strain and may impede the healing process. It is important to limit activities that require intense visual focus to promote optimal recovery. The other choices are incorrect because: A: Ambulating is generally encouraged postoperatively to prevent complications such as blood clots. B: Keeping the eye patch on during the day is crucial for protection and healing. C: Encouraging coughing and deep-breathing is important for lung expansion and preventing respiratory complications.
