Parents - Assessment & Training

Addressing vision impairments is key to ensuring safety. However, many athletes can perform better because they see “better” than 20/20. Your child’s sports performance and safety can improve with proper vision assessments and training even if they have no vision impairments.

Vision is an integral component to reaction times, balance, agility, and overall performance. If your child can see the ball and other players sooner, they can react more quickly. If your child can process multiple visual inputs more quickly, such as the ball, other players, and obstacles, then they can catch, maneuver, and pass more efficiently. Connecting your child with an eye doctor and trainers who know how to improve performance through vision is key to elevating their overall safety and performance.

There is a community of eye and vision professionals that can work with your child to improve their performance and safety. Eye doctors with sports vision training can provide comprehensive eye examinations, as well as sports-specific visual assessments and training.
