Do You Wear Eye Protection when Playing Sports?
When I played racquetball, I wore eye protection. It saved my sight. My retina specialist once treated Scottie Pippen for an eye injury.
By the time we finished playing we were both trying to knock each other silly. One time I hit a hard shot that landed right in the middle of his back. He aimed the return shot right at me. It hit me square in the face. Fortunately I was wearing glasses or it would have probably put my eye out.
I was wearing prescription glasses with safety lenses. Even so the force of the impact gave me a black eye and forced the nose piece of the glasses right into my nose. It hurt quite a bit.
I have a friend whose uncle is the basketball great Scottie Pippen. It turns out that Scottie and I have the same ophthalmologist. He's a retina specialist and one of the best in the country. A while back when Scottie was still playing, the good doctor had to travel down to Florida to treat Scottie for a detached retina. Seems like he caught an elbow in the eye. A lot of pro basketball players wear eye protection, but Scottie wasn't one of them.
According to the St. Louis Post Dispatch, "The American Academy of Ophthalmology wants to cut the 40,000 career-ending, sports-related eye injuries reported annually, especially considering a third of the eye-injury victims are children.
The Academy has started the EyeSmart campaign in observance of Sports Eye Safety Month. Athletes should wear sport-specific protective eye wear that has been fitted by an eye doctor, the Academy says.
The Academy recommends lenses made of polycarbonate materials which can withstand a ball or other missile moving at 90 miles per hour.
Eye injuries can range from getting hit with at ball or stick to a finger or elbow. Eye injury is a leading cause of visual impairment in children, says an Academy spokesman."
The Academy has urged all parents to make sure their children wear eye protection when they play sports.
