Virtually all sporting activity can still be actively enjoyed by people with one eye.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Some sports will require a period of re-adjustment from binocular vision to monocular vision like: golf<\/strong>, fishing<\/strong>, football<\/strong>, bike riding<\/strong> and skiing<\/strong> as they all involve depth perception. Sports where there will probably be no real adjustment needed would be: pool and snooker<\/strong>, running<\/strong>, hiking<\/strong> and swimming<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There is one sporting activity you may<\/em> wish to reconsider as it includes a possibility of injury due to high-speed ball impact, namely that of Squash<\/strong>. A typical squash-ball is just the right size to cause major harm on impact with your remaining eye.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Also it is recommended that swimmers wear goggles<\/strong> to prevent possible displacement of the artificial eye due the forces of water, or socket irritation from Chlorine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Virtually all sporting activity can still be actively enjoyed by people with one eye.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":125,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_gspb_post_css":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"class_list":["post-132","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorised"],"rttpg_featured_image_url":{"full":["https:\/\/services.nhslothian.scot\/artificialeyes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/04\/swim.jpg",1520,714,false],"landscape":["https:\/\/services.nhslothian.scot\/artificialeyes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/04\/swim.jpg",1520,714,false],"portraits":["https:\/\/services.nhslothian.scot\/artificialeyes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/04\/swim.jpg",1520,714,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/services.nhslothian.scot\/artificialeyes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/04\/swim-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/services.nhslothian.scot\/artificialeyes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/04\/swim-300x141.jpg",300,141,true],"large":["https:\/\/services.nhslothian.scot\/artificialeyes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/04\/swim-1024x481.jpg",1024,481,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/services.nhslothian.scot\/artificialeyes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/04\/swim.jpg",1520,714,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/services.nhslothian.scot\/artificialeyes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/04\/swim.jpg",1520,714,false],"post_slider_thumbnail":["https:\/\/services.nhslothian.scot\/artificialeyes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/04\/swim.jpg",1520,714,false]},"rttpg_author":{"display_name":"","author_link":"https:\/\/services.nhslothian.scot\/artificialeyes\/author\/"},"rttpg_comment":0,"rttpg_category":"Uncategorised<\/a>","rttpg_excerpt":"Virtually all sporting activity can still be actively enjoyed by people with one eye.","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/services.nhslothian.scot\/artificialeyes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/services.nhslothian.scot\/artificialeyes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/services.nhslothian.scot\/artificialeyes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/services.nhslothian.scot\/artificialeyes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/services.nhslothian.scot\/artificialeyes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=132"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/services.nhslothian.scot\/artificialeyes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":177,"href":"https:\/\/services.nhslothian.scot\/artificialeyes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132\/revisions\/177"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/services.nhslothian.scot\/artificialeyes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/125"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/services.nhslothian.scot\/artificialeyes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=132"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/services.nhslothian.scot\/artificialeyes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=132"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
