    i played varsity football, track, and gymnastics in high school and used contacts with out any problems. i am nearsighted and objects look a little blurry more than three feet away from me. i imagine this wouldn't be a horrible problem for boxing, but was wondering if any of you have any knowledge or experience with this issue.

    i am nearsighted myself and do fight MMA. Most times i have no trouble with my contacts but a flush on shot to the eye will make your contact pop out. Has only happened twice though so most time u should be good.

    You can get some "sport contact glue" from any large pharmacy. You just mix it with your contact solution and put your contact's on as per normal.

    To remove it you just need to rinse with water, I used to use this when I used to play Karate..

    It's a pleasure of mine to assist. ;)

    But it has to be a large pharmacy, because it is quite rare to find.
