Johannesburg – Proteas' wicketkeeper Mark Boucher underwent eye surgery at a Cape Town Clinic on Thursday morning.
In a report his medical team issued after the operation, it said the three hour procedure went well.
“There were no complications, no bleeding and nothing else unexpected,” the report said.
“The important parts of the retina were intact, confirming previous findings.
“The blood which accumulated due to the trauma was removed.
