What if a boxer has vision problems?

[UglyPug]

Not from fighting, but just normal vision problems that require you to wear glasses or contact lens. . .

Do they make like special kinds of contact lens? I mean, I'm sure some boxers have eyesight bad enough that would require them to wear contact lens. . . That would definitely be too big of a hinderance to overcome. . .

I have always ask myself that because I can barely see without glasses

[UglyPug]

i need to wear glasses, but it's only at distances of 10 feet plus where mine is sketchy. . .


there's gotta be plenty of boxers who require glasses. . .

It is very relevant, maybe you're far sighted, so it doesn't matter in the ring.
