The conference seeks to encourage increased collaboration among those professionals who work with athletes, according to Dr. Andrich. “Eye care professionals with expertise in sports vision assessment and training, along with other professionals such as sports psychologists, athletic trainers, and coaches can work together to train athletes of all ages and skill levels to help improve visual function, leading to improved performance,” he notes.

Scheduled sessions include presentations on insights into new digital technology, a report on how vision data is helping major league baseball teams select players during the draft, and how organized competitive video gaming, one of the fastest growing sports in the world, presents an opportunity for sports vision practitioners to grow their practice.

Additionally, a three-part course on concussion diagnosis management and treatment will help attendees stay up to date with the latest research and technology in concussion diagnosis management and treatment. Conducted by Neuro Optometric Rehabilitation Association (NORA) president DeAnn Fitzgerald, OD and NORA and ISVA Vice President Charles Shidlofsky, OD, FCOVD, this course will include video demonstrations with equipment as well as information on nutrition and genetic analysis options to help patients recover better.
