What is a

Sportvision Assessment?

The primary visual skills for sport are aiming and anticipation. A Sportvision assessment is a programme of diagnostic and screening tests which are based on this. The tests are designed to go much further and deeper into understanding the way your eyes work together and to monitor improvements over time.

In addition to a full eye test, it assesses:

Hand/eye co-ordination
How the eyes work together
Which eye is dominant
How your eyes work in poor light
How coloured lenses enhance your vision
Anticipation skills
Eye speed

”I would recommend anyone who is working with computer screens all day to visit Carmelo's opticians for an eye exam as you never know that you might need glasses.
