Scott Bailey, a blind judo athlete, says his Paralympics hopes are being derailed after a doctor warned that continuing to compete could put his remaining sight at risk. Both reports describe that Bailey has been told he may lose his remaining vision if he continues judo, a sport he has pursued as a route to the Paralympic Games. The warning comes from medical advice rather than any decision by sporting authorities. Bailey’s comments indicate he is now facing a difficult choice between pursuing competition and protecting his eyesight. The articles do not specify the underlying medical condition, nor do they provide details on the exact mechanism or timeframe of the risk. They also do not mention any appeal process, classification review, or changes to eligibility rules. Instead, the focus is on the direct impact of the doctor’s warning on Bailey’s plans. The reports agree that his Paralympics judo dream is currently dashed due to health concerns linked to his remaining vision.
