Positive News: Shakib Al Hasan Won't Require Eye Surgery
Renowned Bangladeshi all-rounder, Shakib Al Hasan, who recently sought specialist consultation in Singapore for his eye problems, has received encouraging news. Following a series of tests, it has been confirmed that Shakib will not need to undergo eye surgery. The decision was disclosed by an anonymous source, who also mentioned that Shakib is set to return to his home country tonight.
Shakib has been grappling with eye issues since the last World Cup, seeking medical attention in London before the start of the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL). After playing the initial match for Rangpur Riders, he experienced a recurrence of eye problems, prompting his visit to Singapore for further evaluation. Three doctors have examined Shakib's eyes over the past two days, with the Bangladesh Cricket Board's (BCB) medical department expected to receive the comprehensive reports.
BCB Chief Doctor Debashish Chowdhury emphasized that the final decision regarding Shakib's condition will be communicated today, taking into account the test reports and recommendations from the Singaporean specialists. In the absence of Shakib, Rangpur Riders competed against Sylhet Strikers in the BPL yesterday.
Ishtiaq Sadek, the executive officer of the franchise, highlighted the dependency on Shakib's medical report, stating, "Until he recovers and his eyes return to normal, he has no chance to return to the field. He can play only if he is healthy. As far as we know, Shakib will have to undergo a minor procedure, not surgery."
Shakib's eye issues were initially addressed by an optometrist in Chennai during the World Cup, followed by consultations in Dhaka and London just before the BPL. Recent examinations in Singapore revealed that the accumulation of a liquid under the retina, attributed to excessive stress, has been affecting his vision, particularly while batting.
