High Myopia and Contact Sports: What You Need to Know?<\/h3>\n\n

\n“People with a high vision defect must be careful in boxing or football, where the head is exposed to injuries. Laser correction not only helps us see but also allows us to return to the passions we love, after a thorough examination of the fundus of the eye.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

Perfect Shots \u2013 Taking Photos Without Glare and Fogged Lenses<\/h3>\n\n

FAQ \u2013 Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n\n
1. Can I skydive after laser correction?<\/p>\n\n
Yes! After the healing period, most patients return to extreme passions. However, always discuss the schedule for returning to sports with your doctor.<\/p>\n\n
2. What if my vision defect is huge \u2013 do I also have a chance for a life without glasses?<\/p>\n\n
At Swisslaser, we handle even very large defects. If laser is not an option, we will offer you, for example, phakic lenses. It’s best to simply schedule an appointment and check your options.<\/p>\n\n
3. Will the sun bother me more after the procedure?<\/p>\n\n
For the first few weeks, your eyes may be more sensitive, so good sunglasses are essential. Later, everything returns to normal, although UV protection is healthy for everyone.<\/p>\n\n
4. When can I drive after the surgery?<\/p>\n\n
Most patients see a huge difference the very next day, but the final ‘green light’ is given by the doctor at the follow-up appointment.<\/p>\n\n
5. Will this effect stay with me forever?<\/p>\n\n
The laser permanently changes the shape of the cornea. Just remember that the procedure does not stop time \u2013 after the age of 40, natural presbyopia may appear, for which we also have solutions.<\/p>\n\n
