Honda said Marquez has made "periodic visits to an
ophthalmologist to assess the evolution of his vision over the past two
months."
"The progress made has been deemed favorable and as a
result Marquez will continue with a conservative treatment plan for the next
few weeks," Honda added in a statement on their website.
Marquez has been suffering from double vision since an
off-road training crash at the end of October.
The 28-year-old six-time MotoGP world champion missed the
final two rounds of the season and the Jerez test session in December.
"The situation does not prevent the rider from
continuing his physical training plan to prepare himself physically for a new
season," Honda said.
Marquez missed the entire 2020 season and the first few
races of 2021 due to a serious injury to his right arm sustained in a race
crash.
Despite continue weakness in the arm, he won three races to
finish sixth in the World Championship.
He had already suffered a bout of double vision early in his
career following a crash at the Malaysian GP in Moto2 in 2011 which forced
him to end his season.
