"Killer Bee" attacks with clear vision, Zhuang Kaiting vows to win gold again
In the sport of boxing, clear vision is crucial for quick reactions and accurate judgment. As Taiwan’s first “Killer Bee” to win the ONE Championship world championship, “Killer Bee” Zhuang Kaiting used to compete with blurred vision because she was worried that her contact lenses would break during intense competitions.
Zhuang Kaiting said: “In the game, we rely heavily on our reflexes. When we see a shadow, we have to take the next step first. Vision is very important for the performance of this event.” Because she was worried about the risks of surgery, she originally wanted to wait until she retired before undergoing myopia surgery. Surgery. However, after seeing He Pinli, a college classmate and also a professional athlete, share her experience after surgery, and after undergoing detailed pre-operative examination and evaluation, Weishi felt quite reassured about the safety of the surgery.
As a superficial surgery, SMART TransPRK is a major advantage for boxers and other boxers who often have to face heavy punches. The ability to preserve a relatively complete and stable corneal structure after surgery is a major advantage. Director Xu Chengru of Weishi Eye Hospital Taichung Hospital went on to share: “Weishi adopts more stringent surgical standards. Not only does it require 16 instruments and 56 data tests before surgery to comprehensively evaluate eye health, but the remaining corneal thickness after surgery is also based on 350µm. High standards serve as safety values to ensure the safety of surgery.”
As technology advances, laser surgery for myopia has become an option for many people to improve their vision. Zhuang Kaiting, who completed laser surgery for myopia in November last year, returned to the competition with clear vision and is actively preparing for various events this year. She also looks forward to winning the gold medal in the ring again this year.
