Or know of anyone who has? It really irritates me because it doesn't even have to be a big punch, just a good scrape of the gloves to the eye and my eyes goes really red, starts watering and looks like I'm crying and I really cant fight on cos I cant see a thing. When I use to train a lot more couple of years ago it happened a lot less often, don't know if I got used to it or just got hit less. Apart from getting hit less in the eye anyone got a better suggestion? Eye drop of some sort or have you suffered from it and just got used to it?
Lol, everyone has sensitive eyes. Just sounds like your a bit unlucky. If you take a direct hit to the eye, no matter how hard, it will sting and water for a while.
How can you not get hit in the eye? Never been hit by a jab you didn't see coming, an uppercut? If you don't blink and close your eyes when you see a punch coming, there's a high chance you will get hit there. I've always had problem with my eyes, always overreacted to things getting in there. I suppose its just extra sensitive because id much rather take a clean lefthook to the jaw than even get a scraped with a jab to the eye. Its a *******. Was wondering if anyone else is the same. It stings so much and gets so teary I actually cannot see a damm thing from that eye and have to squint the rest of the fight. happened the other day in sparring and I couldnt carry on. What a *****!
