Geordie star reveals fearNewcastle midfielder Kieron Dyer has admitted feeling worried about his sight after he suffered an eye injury in training recently.
He said: "I thought I had lost the sight in one eye,"
"My sight completely went.
"And when I looked at the doctor's face and he did not want to say how bad it was, I realised it was bad.
"By the time we got to the hospital to see the specialist, my sight still had not come back.
"But after we waited around, it slowly came back and after they did the tests, they said there was a lot of trauma to the eye, but I should get my eyesight back.
"It is still not 100 percent, but I was given the okay to play after two weeks."
On his return against Manchester City last weekend Dyer said: "I was a bit disappointed I was only on the bench. But the manager has that approach, even though he is under a lot of pressure.
"He was at West Ham when he had the likes of Paolo Di Canio and Frederic Kanoute injured. He never rushes players back.
"You are frustrated, but you have got to take your hat off. He never takes chances with his players and you have got to be thankful for that."
