Lifting weights with glasses on? Ophthalmologist says it can be riskier than you think

Ophthalmologist Dr Sanskriti Ukey warns against lifting weights with high power glasses. This activity can cause a dangerous pressure spike in the eyes. Such pressure can lead to retinal tears or detachment. Retinal detachment is a serious condition requiring surgery. It can result in permanent vision loss. Protecting your vision is paramount. Consider lighter weights or alternative methods for lifting.
