Vision And Sports

Yup! I absolutely LOVE the summer Olympics. This year will be exciting, they will be in Beijing. So I will do a series of sports - and the importance vision plays in these sports.

Archery - Visual Need For Archery: Visual Acuity

Visual acuity is the ability to resolve images; that is, to see small things clearly. It’s hard to shoot something you can’t see, and hard to aim with a blurred sight and target. There’s even some evidence that peak performance archery can be compromised by even modest reductions in vision, though with normal vision, you should be able to hit the ten at 90m every time… Normal vision, of course, isn’t all that common, especially in a sport that includes 40-yr old wrinklies and people who gave up football because they couldn’t see the ball without glasses. And normal even vision is compromisd by bright light, dim light, lack of fluids and other factors. So we can expect to pay some attention to the vision thing.

Incidentally, there are a couple of other visual capabilities that matter; for example, peripheral vision can be imporant in picking up wind cues.
