Oh well, then I was wrong.
I actually thought he still suffered from the incident.
I'm an idiot. Sorry.
i heard in an interview he gave he still suffers with his vision. he said when the sun is in his eyes it affects that eye strange and when he moves his eye down when the ball is at his feet he some times has problems with blurred vision or something.
that is worrying but he said it is not much of a problem and if he wears glasses on sunny days he is ok for the light problem.
I was watching a game when liverpool last played Man Utd and he was not playing well at all. giving up the ball alot. then he made a very strange mistake when the ball was bouncing up a little in front of him he slammed it straight into the air. he said he was having a problem with light (or maby he was looking down?) that game and he ended up shooting it straight in the air.
I was worried maby this is why Rafa was willing to sell him but i think they would check out his eye in the medical exam to make sure.
Either way he still plays great and says it does not affect him much.
I will try to find out where i heard all that
