Correct Answer: D

Rationale: After cataract surgery, the client should avoid activities that can increase intraocular pressure. Blowing one's nose and bearing down during defecation can raise the pressure inside the eye, which can be harmful during the healing process. Lifting items heavier than 10 pounds can also lead to an increase in intraocular pressure. Therefore, all the activities mentioned in the choices (nose blowing, bearing down during defecation, and lifting heavy items) should be avoided after cataract surgery to promote proper healing and reduce the risk of complications.
