Why You Need A Floorball Protective Eyewear?

Athletes need to use protective eyewear because eye injuries can be devastating, said Dr Christopher Khng, Medical Director, of Eyewise Vision Clinic. This advice is backed up by a report from “Prevent Blindness America reported that hospital emergency rooms treated more than 40,000 sports-related eye injuries every year.

Sports-related eye injuries are widespread and athletes should wear protective eyewear specifically designed to protect their eyes. This is because our eye is extremely delicate making up of six extra-ocular muscles surrounding the eyeball and act like the strings on a puppet, moving the eye in different directions.

There is a saying “what you don’t know doesn’t mean it will not happen to you.” A common misconception among floorball players is that only goalie needs protective gears. On the contrary, sports activities that involve balls and swinging of sport equipment such as rackets pose a potential for eye injury. Movement of objects in the air can happen in milliseconds during a floorball game making it impossible for a player to react in time. The fast swing of a floorball stick, a fast floorball ball speed of 200km/hr, unintentional close body contacts such as finger poke and elbow jab are all potential causes for a serious eye injury.
