Fenerbahce confirmed Sunday that striker Robin van Persie suffered an eye injury in the club's 3-1 against Akhisar Belediyespor, according to BBC Sport.
The initial fear was that the Dutch star sustained major damage to his left eye, with his vision possibly impacted. Fenerbahce team doctor Burak Kunduraciogl allayed those fears.
"He received a blow to the eye and suffered a torn eyelid and bleeding," Kunduraciogl said. "After the investigations, we learned that nothing important happened. His condition is good."
Van Persie enjoyed a strong debut season in Istanbul after moving from Manchester United.
