Our Eye Doctor Helps Athletes with Vision Care

We provide athletes with top-notch eye care to perform as well as possible in their respective sports. In addition, our optometrist offers sports vision testing, allowing athletes to visualize their visual performance. Sports vision testing can differ depending on the individual needs of each athlete. However, this testing can help evaluate athletic abilities tied to depth perception, eye tracking, and hand-eye coordination. You should stop by Urias Eyecare in Midland, Odessa, and Andrews, TX. Dr. Urias can assist you if you are a local athlete who wants to improve your performance.

What Type of Tests Do We Offer?

Our optometrist provides vision tests to assess athletic abilities and performance. The Snellen Eye Chart is one of them. We ask patients to read lettering from a standard eye chart 20 feet away. You must identify letters of increasingly smaller sizes. This basic eye test is crucial in determining an athlete's visual aptitude.

We also test contrast sensitivity. Contrast sensitivity is crucial for an athlete's performance. We will ask you to describe the orientation of parallel gray stripes placed against backgrounds of different colors. These backgrounds gradually match the colors of the strips. Low contrast sensitivity makes tracking objects more challenging, particularly in low-light conditions.

Vision Care Treatments

We can provide several solutions for addressing contrast sensitivity issues. First, we will find a solution that works for you. One such solution is wearing eyeglasses with a unique lens that increases visibility, depending on your vision needs. Our eye doctor will recommend suitable eyeglasses if you have contrast sensitivity concerns, and choose this solution.

We provide ocular alignment tests, such as the Hirschberg test. These tests gauge how well both of your eyes work together. In addition, we can detect alignment issues by analyzing specific points on your cornea where reflections happen.

Athletes can enhance their performance in more ways than going to the gym. Exceptional hand-eye coordination and visual processing speed are also requirements for optimal athletic performance. Our tests can help your eyes perform as well as possible.
