Visual Sports Training
Vision and sports performance
Being a good athlete depends not only on physical ability, but also on the quality vision. Efficient vision is crucial for quick decision-making, precision in movement, and coordination between the eyes and the body. Whether you play team sports like football or basketball, or individual sports like tennis or golf, your performance is directly influenced by how you see and interpret the game.
Visual problems that affect your sporting performance
Several aspects of visual function can negatively impact performance in sport, such as:
- Reaction time: Difficulty reacting quickly to visual stimuli, such as an approaching ball.
- Blurred or double vision: Problems seeing moving objects clearly or at different distances, which can affect accuracy in sport.
- Depth perception: Difficulty in judging distances and positions, affecting the ability to intercept or hit moving objects.
- Eye-hand coordination: Difficulties in synchronising vision with body movements, essential for sports requiring precision.
- Eye fatigue: Feeling of eyestrain during play, which can reduce concentration and performance.
