    I am worried.

    Ok so i had my first training last week and i was doing fine but toward the end my right eye ****ed up and went strobe/blurry, It has done it a few times before, I was gutted and sat out, The trainer told me "****ed up eye no boxing" but he wants me to come again on sunday and i am worrying if it will happen again, I have been getting fit though this week with runs etc etc.
    I hope it goes well but i am ****ting myself for it.

        Oh ok. If professionals say don't worry about it, then don't. Just concentrate on your boxing, not your eye

        It might be a nervous twitch or something. Hopefully it will go soon

          /\ you wish. Doctors and opticians can **** up you know man. Amount of stories I heard bout the optician by us.

          Just keep an eye on it ( no pun intended ) maybe do some research on the net... and if it keeps happening go back to the doctor and be more insistant.

            I often get sparks and floaters after a heavy hook to the head. I've spoken to my doctor about it, and I also mentioned it to my optometrist when I went to get my glasses renewed. They both tell me it's normal. As I understand it, nerves and blood vessels run differently for everyone, and for me, my doctors theorize, a hook to the head may ring the optic nerve like hitting your "funny bone" does to your arm.

            Get checked out anyway. Just because my doctors think a similar symptom isn't dangerous to me, doesn't mean your problem isn't dangerous for you.

                Never heard of a second opinion and how many people suffered greatly becuase they didn't get one?

                Guys, always get at least 2 or even more opinions before settling down with one doctors sayings; especially when training and competing in a sport such as boxing.

                  agreed, a 2nd opinion is key in a sport like boxing.
                  That being said, I wouldn't stress about it too much man, I think everyone here's had some fuzzy eyes every now and then. Just comes with the sport. There are few sports where you work so hard, and take such punishment. Getting blurry is pretty normal in my opinion.
