Strobe training involves an athlete wearing strobe glasses while performing simple to complex tasks. It is a form of deprivation training aimed towards increasing an athlete’s ability to anticipate and their reaction time to specific stimuli. Studies have been done that show how strobe training can benefit an athlete’s performance where trajectory anticipation and fast […]

Sports vision training is a specialty type of vision therapy that works to enhance and improve an athlete’s vision capabilities to take their game to the next level. There’s a lot more than just seeing clearly than people realized that’s involved in high performance sports. Having 20/20 vision is only the first step – ideally […]
For those of you who were lucky enough to view this once in a life-time event, we hope that you all did so safely from behind the proper protective eye wear. The sun is normally not healthy to look at on a normal day and is deceivingly even less safe to look at during an […]
Needless to say, some of us go through this with ease and others it’s definitely a process. I’ve been wearing glasses since I was 6 years old. Every year I would get a new pair because my prescription kept on increasing and with each prescription change, came prescription adaptation. I’ve become rather used to it […]

In other words, the brain never learns to see 20/20 because of a refractive, […]
I find that vision is one of the most taken for granted senses that we possess. If it’s good, it’s great, and we don’t bother to do the maintenance until it’s too late. Just like any car, there is a regular maintenance schedule and if you don’t follow it then your car is bound to […]
One of the more common questions I receive is about eye twitching. It’s probably happened at least once to all of us. You’re trying to concentrate on something and then all of sudden your eye starts going off and it wasn’t something you were intentionally trying to do. It’ll probably go on for a couple […]
What goes into the human body has a huge impact on how well the body performs and functions as a whole. We all know that a healthy diet will lead to longevity and that the more natural the sources of food are, the easier it is on our bodies to process them. Studies are finding […]
