If you play outdoor sports recreationally or professionally and want to improve your game, sports vision training can help you achieve your full athletic potential.

The exercises and drills performed in sports vision training aim to improve, enhance and support the visual skills necessary to excel in your particular sport, and based on what position you play.

Outdoor sports require not only physical fitness but also sharp visual skills. At Opto-Mization, our Sports Vision Training programs are tailored to improve crucial visual abilities like hand-eye coordination, depth perception, and reaction time. Whether you’re into baseball, soccer, or golf, our training enhances your visual performance, giving you a competitive edge.

Key Aspects of Sports Vision Training

1. Depth Perception: Critical for judging distances, especially in fast-paced sports like tennis or soccer. Training improves your ability to react swiftly and accurately.

2. Hand-Eye Coordination: Essential for sports that require precision, such as golf or archery. Our exercises refine this coordination, leading to better accuracy and control.

3. Visual Reaction Time: Quick reactions can make the difference between winning and losing. Our programs are designed to improve how fast your brain processes visual information, enabling quicker decisions on the field.

4. Peripheral Awareness: Being aware of your surroundings without directly looking at them is key in team sports. Our training helps you better track multiple moving objects, enhancing your overall gameplay.

  • What is Neuro-Optometry?

    Neuro-Optometry focuses on the intricate connection between your visual system and the brain, extending beyond traditional eye care to assess functional vision. This branch of optometry examines how your eyes track, move, coordinate, and how your brain processes depth, motion, and balance. Disruptions in these functions can lead to a range of issues including headaches, migraines, dizziness, balance challenges, post-concussion symptoms, reading difficulties, and attention deficits (ADHD). By exploring these functional areas, we also identify opportunities to enhance performance in activities such as sports, reading speed, and cognitive processes.

  • What is Vision Therapy?

    At Opto-Mization, vision therapy is a specialized, personalized program aimed at improving visual skills and abilities. It goes beyond traditional vision therapy to help improve how the eyes and brain work together, addressing visual-motor and perceptual-cognitive challenges to enhance overall visual function. It’s more than just exercises; it’s a pathway to better vision and improved daily life.

  • Do you Provide Regular Eye Exams and General Optometric Services?

    Yes, alongside vision therapy and neuro-optometry, we offer comprehensive eye exams and general optometry services. Our experienced optometrists perform thorough eye exams to evaluate overall eye health, identify any eye conditions or diseases, and prescribe corrective lenses when beneficial.

  • Who is the Ideal Candidate for Vision Therapy and Neuro-Optometry?

    Vision therapy and neuro-optometric rehabilitation can help individuals of all ages. Whether you’re struggling with visual processing issues, binocular vision disorders, amblyopia (lazy eye), strabismus (eye misalignment), or have sustained a brain injury, our services might be beneficial for you. Contact us to discuss if our tailored approach can meet your specific needs and goals.

  • Do I Need a Referral to See an Optometrist at Opto-Mization?

    No, you do not need a referral for an eye exam at Opto-Mization. We welcome anyone who suspects they might benefit from our services, whether you’re experiencing symptoms of visual discomfort or just want to ensure optimal visual performance. Feel free to reach out and schedule your appointment directly with us to take the first step toward understanding and improving your visual function.

  • Do You Direct Bill Insurance?

    Yes, we offer direct billing for a variety of insurance plans to make the process as seamless and hassle-free as possible for our patients. Our knowledgeable staff is well-versed in working with insurance providers, ensuring that you can maximize your benefits while minimizing out-of-pocket expenses for our services, including vision therapy and eye exams.
