Summary
A Reddit user with long COVID said swimming was fine for them but weight lifting destroyed them, and that the angle their eyes turned to focus had been thrown out of whack, so they swapped between three pairs of glasses during the day. They reported an MRI without contrast and a CT with contrast and said they continued to improve.
