Have you ever heard someone say ‘that player has great vision’?
Sports commentators often describe a player’s ability to accurately judge where other players or the goals are without looking, as ‘great vision’.
This ability has nothing to do with the player’s ‘clarity of vision’; it is about peripheral awareness and efficient visual function. Some sports people have these skills naturally, others need to learn to develop them!
Vision training activities are a structured series of exercises designed to maximise the efficiency of specific visual skills required for all different types of sports.
So if your sport involves vision (and let’s face it – most do) then consider a vision examination about your specific sport and its visual requirements.
