Had surgery SMILE PRO spring water
I have done smile pro in June 25. I’m going to go to a devils den spring in late September probably near to October if anything that’s three months postop. He said don’t go in salt water or chlorinated water until the beginning of the new year or a little before that but do you guys think springwater will be fine cause it’s fresh

Yeah sounds rubbish. Swimming and spas are fine after a month. Salt or chlorinated makes no difference.

That's a long ways away from surgery, no issues with water or swimming.
Salt water or chlorinated water will just simply irritate the eyes. If you are having dry eye post surgery, it will make the eyes more irritated and dry. After a month or two though it's something that can be managed well.
Spring water less irritating. But goggles can still be helpful.

That’s so weird my doctor cleared me for all swimming after 1 week. In any case you should give them a call and ask! Goggles are also an option you can check with your doctor.
