Thorsten Legat Sees Clearly After Lens-Exchange Surgery Following Brief Post-Op Scare

A refractive lens exchange by Dr. Ralph Neuber in Cologne ended years of headaches from blurry vision.

Overview

  • The former footballer and TV personality underwent refractive lens exchange on both eyes last week at Augencentrum Köln.
  • He described a short-lived shock after one procedure when one eye initially went dark before his sight stabilized.
  • Doctors discharged him on the same day after each operation, and the healing progressed without lasting complications.
  • Legat reports no more headaches or balance issues and says he no longer needs glasses.
  • He documented the process on Instagram, while his son Nico supported him by picking him up after the appointments.
