Kontrolltermine nach einer augenärztlichen Behandlung sind geeignet, den
Patienten nicht nur fachspezifisch, sondern in seiner Gesamtkonstitution zu
betrachten. Dazu gehört auch, ihnen Ratschläge für Bewegung und Sport geben zu
können. Hier werden die aktuellen Empfehlungen für Augenärzte vorgestellt, die
jedoch aufgrund mangelnder Forschungsdaten nicht evidenzbasiert sind, sondern
auf Erfahrungswerten im interdisziplinären Austausch beruhen.
Abstract
Nowadays, sport and exercise play an important role in the daily lives of all age
groups of our patients. As doctors, we have the task of seeing patients as
individuals, in addition to providing specialist monitoring and support. This
requires interdisciplinary thinking. Diabetic disease is a good example of this.
As ophthalmologists, we should not only focus on the retina or the lens during
check-ups, but also pay attention to the overall constitution of our patients.
For example, it can be helpful if, after cataract surgery, exercise/sport is
interrupted only briefly and minimally.
This paper presents the current recommendations for ophthalmologists. The aim is
to be able to give affected patients advice on sport and exercise relatively
quickly and easily, even for recurring use in various areas of daily
practice.
However, the recommendations presented here are not evidence-based due to a lack
of research data, but are based on years of experience, the combination of
different specialist areas and after consultation with colleagues from different
perspectives on sport and exercise.
