This is our motto for the Sports Vision Clinic, where we analyze and train the visual skills that are essential for peak athletic performance. Our evaluations explore areas of vision that are not assessed during an annual eye examination, and gives us greater insight into understanding where our athletes can improve their game.
How We Can Help
As our motto says, our goal is to get you seeing clearer and reacting faster. It’s of no surprise that an athlete needs to have clear vision, with the average professional baseball player requiring 20/15 vision or better! But an athlete’s vision is much more than just seeing clearly – we want you to be able to process faster and to keep your eyes steady when tasks become more difficult.
Athletes also must make rapid and accurate decisions to ensure that they are successful on the field. A hockey goalie needs to determine where the puck is going to be shot, a basketball player needs to focus clearly on the rim before shooting, and softball players need to know whether the pitch is a ball or a strike. We can create an individualized training program for athletes, as well as provide on-site screenings for an entire team.
What to Expect
In order to be evaluated by our Sports Vision Performance clinic, an eye exam with dilation must have been performed within the last year. Our team of students and doctors will evaluate the skills required for your sport over the course of an exam lasting 1-2 hours, including a consultation at the end with the head doctor. If training is recommended to improve your visual skills, weekly training sessions lasting 45-minutes each will be scheduled.
Our clinic uses the same equipment used by professional and collegiate teams across the country to give our Phoenix Valley athletes the highest quality training possible. We are ready to help bring your game to the next level.
