It Takes Way More Than Strength and Speed to Be at the Top of Your Game!
No matter the sport, an athlete’s core skills determine how quickly and accurately they react to a play in real-time. Making the right decision in a fraction of a second is what sets all athletes apart.
Athletes around the world, whether they’re into soccer, hockey, baseball, basketball, golf, skiing, or dozens of other sports, are turning to sports vision training to gain an edge over the competition.
With sports vision training, an athlete can become an exceptional player by improving the essential visual skills needed for eye-hand-body coordination and to make split-second decisions in their sport. Even athletes with 20/20 vision may lack the visual skills needed to truly excel in their sport.

Sports Vision Training Gives You An Edge Over Your Competition
Sports vision training is a sport science dedicated to improving athletic performance.
Sports vision training helps optimize the brain’s ability to react to visual signals to improve:
- Balance – the ability to stay upright or in control of body movement.
- Contrast Sensitivity – the ability to distinguish between an object and its background, like a white ball against the sky.
- Depth Perception – the ability to quickly and accurately judge the distance and speed of objects.
- Dynamic Visual Acuity – the ability to clearly see objects in motion
- Eye Tracking – the ability to “keep your eye on the ball.”
- Focusing – the ability to rapidly change focus from one object to another quickly and efficiently.
- Hand-Eye or Body-Eye Coordination – the ability to use your eyes to direct the movements of your hands and body.
- Peripheral Awareness – the ability to see things out of the corner of your eye.
- Reaction Time – how quickly a person perceives an anticipated visual event and how quickly they can react to that stimulus.
At The Sports Vision Center at Contact Lens and Vision, we help you be the athlete you know you can be!
Athletes, especially those in visually demanding sports, need to have remarkable visual skills. The ability to focus, track fast-moving objects, and react quickly can mean the difference not only between winning and losing but between staying safe and incurring an injury. So even the smallest increase in processing ability, reaction time, and resilience can put an athlete ahead of his or her game.
Our training program will improve these cognitive-visual skills;
- Peripheral vision awareness
- Eye-tracking
- Visual concentration
- Color contrast
How Does Sports Vision Training Work?
Sports vision training is a personalized form of vision therapy aimed at developing specific visual skills in athletes. The exercises in a sports vision program train the brain to effectively interact with the eyes and improve visual functioning.
The sports vision training program consists of a custom program of at-home exercises, with review at our office every 1-3 months. The close monitoring and follow-up appointments ensure steady improvements in your visual functions.
Remember, motivation and consistency are the keys to getting the maximum benefit.
