Nati Jota Says She Broke Post-Op Rule After Eye Surgery Because of Online Pressure

The Argentine influencer admits she applied eyeliner against medical advice after comments about her look without glasses.

Overview

  • In an Instagram video posted this week, she said, “I shouldn’t have done it,” acknowledging she used eyeliner even though her ophthalmologist had not yet allowed it.
  • She attributed the decision to persistent critiques and “passive-aggressive” suggestions from followers who said she would look better with lined eyes.
  • Jota underwent surgery in early November to correct myopia and astigmatism and described feeling both excited and distressed afterward.
  • She reported improved vision, including being able to drive without glasses, and said the operation was not painful.
  • Explaining the procedure, she noted heavy numbing drops, repeated instructions to “look at the green light,” and a brief laser step.
