"Tom Aspinall remains on the road to recovery after undergoing surgery on both eyes. The medical team that performed the procedure shared an update on the UFC heavyweight champion's condition on Tuesday via Instagram. Late last year, Aspinall revealed he would need to undergo surgery after being poked in both eyes by Ciryl Gane in their title bout at UFC 321."
""After his highly publicized eye poke injury, Optegra's expert team is proud to have supported MMA fighter and UFC heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall," the post read. "Over recent months, we've been working closely with him on his recovery. "Following his operation on both eyes we continue the journey to get Tom's vision back to fighting fitness." Aspinall has dealt with vision issues since UFC 321 and earlier this year shared that he was diagnosed with traumatic bilateral Brown's syndrome,"
Tom Aspinall remains on the road to recovery after undergoing surgery on both eyes. Optegra's expert team performed the procedures and is working to restore his vision to fighting fitness. Aspinall was poked in both eyes by Ciryl Gane during their UFC 321 title bout, which was ruled a no contest at 4:35 of Round 1. He was diagnosed with traumatic bilateral Brown's syndrome, a condition that limits full eye movement. The 32-year-old British heavyweight's timeline to return to competition is currently unclear. A rematch with Gane is expected once Aspinall is fully healthy.
