Specialist treatment is ongoing and Aspinall “not yet medically cleared for combat activity”.
“Depending on clinical progression, targeted periocular [surrounding the eyeball] steroid injections or surgical intervention to address persistent motility [movement] impairment may be required if symptoms fail to resolve,” said the report.
In his post on Instagram, Aspinall thanked fans for their continued “love, support & memes” and said he would give further information on Sunday night on his YouTube channel.
Earlier in November, veteran MMA referee Herb Dean said officials will look to more regularly enforce point deductions for eye pokes after the Aspinall incident.
Referee Jason Herzog elected to call the fight a no-contest, rather than disqualify Gane, 35, for the foul.
Calling the fight a no-contest meant he deemed the foul accidental rather than intentional.
A disqualification would have gone down as a win for Aspinall.
UFC gloves are fingerless and the promotion introduced redesigned gloves in June 2024 in an effort to reduce eye pokes, cuts and hand injuries.
But in November 2024 they reverted back to the original style, which had not had a major redesign since becoming mandatory in 1997.
