Why post-cataract recovery is hard to manage
Post-surgery eyes often need multiple drops a day on staggered schedules, and it is easy to lose track of which was given when.
Activity restriction and the recovery cone need consistent monitoring, especially in multi-pet homes.
Follow-up exams and pressure checks are time-sensitive, and a missed visit can be hard to reschedule.

Frequently asked questions
- How often will my dog need eye drops after cataract surgery?
- It varies by case. Your veterinary ophthalmologist sets the exact schedule, and the app lets you log whatever frequency they prescribe.
- How long is the recovery cone needed?
- Cone duration depends on healing and your vet's guidance. Use the cone log to track on and off time as instructed.
- Can I track both eyes separately?
- Yes. You can note left and right eye in your log entries to keep drops and symptoms distinct.
- Does the app store recovery photos?
- Yes, you can attach eye photos to entries so you have a visual record between rechecks.
- Is this app a replacement for veterinary care?
- No. PetHealthLog is an organizational tool only and does not provide medical advice. Always follow your veterinarian for diagnosis, treatment, and any concerns.
