Whether you're a VCU athlete, weekend golfer at Independence Golf Club, or youth soccer player in Chesterfield, optimal vision can improve your game. Our sports vision program assesses and enhances the visual skills critical for athletic performance.
We evaluate dynamic visual acuity, eye-hand coordination, depth perception, and peripheral awareness - all factors that affect sports performance. Training may include specialized exercises and recommendations for sport-specific eyewear to protect against injuries common in Richmond's active community.
For baseball and softball players at The Diamond or tennis enthusiasts at Byrd Park, we offer prescription sports goggles and sunglasses with impact-resistant lenses. We also work with athletes recovering from concussions to address any resulting vision issues.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which sports benefit most from vision training?
All sports use vision differently, but baseball, tennis, basketball, and golf players often see dramatic improvements from targeted training.
Do I need special eyewear for sports?
Protective sports glasses prevent injuries from flying objects or fingers. We'll recommend options based on your sport and prescription needs.
Can vision training help if I already have 20/20 vision?
Absolutely. Sports vision is about how you process visual information, not just acuity. Many athletes with perfect vision benefit from enhanced dynamic skills.
