Movistar Riders player undergoes vision correction surgery

mopoz, who is one of the leaders of the Spanish team Movistar Riders, underwent vision correction surgery. The 26-year-old esportsman told his fans about this on social networks, but he did not disclose the date of his return to the stage. Probably, the player will be forced to miss the starting segment of the season due to rehabilitation after surgery.

Yesterday I had eye surgery with PRK. For those who are interested, I will make a thread of this post, as it happens from day to day. First of all, I need to ask questions to my cousins who had the operation before me.

I will start by saying things that should be understood by everyone. I wear sunglasses all the time I'm awake (I've even been advised to wear them while I sleep). Three types of eye drops, two drops in each eye every 4 hours.

It is strictly forbidden to rub your eyes, regardless of whether you have had surgery or not. I'm supposed to sleep on my back, and I've been told that if I keep my sunglasses on while I sleep, so much the better, so I don't put my hands up to my eyes, turn around, and put pressure on them unintentionally.

After treatment with PRK, there is a longer recovery, vision is restored gradually, and there may be days when you see well at a distance and poorly up close, or vice versa, or you will have double vision.

Recall that mopoz joined the Movistar Riders in the summer of 2017. During this time, the 26-year-old Spaniard has won numerous championships, including OMEN WGR European Challenge 2021, ESL Masters España Season 10 and ESL Challenger at DreamHack Valencia 2022.

The season for Movistar Riders will start in mid-January when the ESL Challenger League Season 44: Europe kicks off. In addition, the Spanish team will take part in the OMEN WGR European Challenge 2023 and ESL Pro League Season 17. At the time of publication of the material, the organization has not announced upcoming changes in the roster.

mopoz himself noted that the recovery process is going well. However, the player experiences discomfort due to the fact that he cannot prepare for the new competitive season with his team.
