West had his scratched eye examined Wednesday, after which he was given the all-clear for Saturday's Game 3 in Miami, the Pacers' official site reports.

Analysis:

West was poked in the eye in the fourth quarter of Tuesday's loss, but after a checkup with the team's eye doctor, he'll be under no restrictions going forward. Under renewed defensive pressure from the Heat, he finished Game 2 with 10 points (5-16 FG, 0-1 3Pt), seven boards, four assists, one block, and one steal in 34 minutes. With less room to operate, his production may be a bit more sporadic for the remainder of the series.
