[QUOTE="anca, post: 840882, member: 48240"] Actually detached retina is a problem that can happen to everybody. Diabetes and myopia are diseases that are increasing the risk. I have the same surgical procedure (vitrectomy) that is used for detached retina. I had blood in my eye after I was hit by the spring from the fork. I’m wearing glasses so the eye was also perforated and I was almost to loose my left eye. After 3 months from accident I’m riding again, the only thing I have to avoid is to be hit again, is no problem even if I crash and get KO . Mx is no problem but woods riding is not that easy because I see only 30% with the left one, I can’t look far enough. Now I’m afraid that it will become a bad habit to look only at short distance in front. The good thing is that the situation is slowly getting better. The shock caused also problems to the lens and cornea. As I was in hospital I have seen people with very big eye problems from puerile accidents. Please wear protective goggles when working, there was a 25 old guy which has lost his eye after a piece of metal fly from a nail when he was trying to put a painting on the wall. [/QUOTE]
