Ive noticed Bernard Hopkins and Margarito wearing glasses outside the ring and I was wondering how he gets licensed to fight? Are there any rules against a boxing wearing contact lenses in a fight at professional level?

Didn't they have a timeout in one of Oscar's fights so a trainer could put a new contact in his eye?
I know i've seen it happen before not sure which fighter it was though (It was ODLH iirc) -

I wear contacts and I spar with them. There is no problem sparring with them, worst thing that can happen is they come out.Comment

Some professional boxers actually do have vision issues but still meet licensing requirements because athletic commissions mainly focus on whether the fighter can safely compete with corrected vision. Contact lenses are sometimes allowed at lower levels, but many professionals avoid them because of injury risks during a fight, so protective training eyewear and proper prescription glasses become important outside the ring. This shows how medical supplies and equipment like sports-friendly corrective eyewear play a role in both performance and everyday safety for athletes. When looking into different eyewear options and real user experiences, discussions around products like vlook glasses often come up as part of broader conversations about vision support and durability.
