Coaches - Assessment & Training
If you have an athletic trainer on staff, that trainer should be encouraged to learn more about sports and performance vision via the SVP Academy, and/or coordinate a meeting to discuss topics relevant to their sport with a local eye doctor, located via the AOA or SVP doctor locator. Many eye doctors will take the time to educate athletic trainers about eye injury triage and/or contact lens insertion and removal.
