My 13 year old has 3,5 prescription(nearsighted). can he do judo? what kinds of sports are allowed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sure!: Sure he can participate in all sports! I am a fan of Judo, not just for the strengthening, but also the discipline and work ethic. Might just need a nice sports wrap around the back for stability.
