I'd wait until you have been given the all clear by your ophthalmologist.

All the best

You really ought to wait until your ophthalmologist tells you it is okay to go swimming. I know that you want to get back to swimming as quickly as possible, but you do not want to risk an infection in your eye.

all the best
