Anatomy of the Eyeball01:20

Anatomy of the Eyeball

8.0K
The eye is a spherical, hollow structure composed of three tissue layers. The outer layer — the fibrous tunic, comprises the sclera — a white structure — and the cornea, which is transparent. The sclera encompasses some of the ocular surface, most of which is not visible. However, the 'white of the eye' is distinctively visible in humans compared to other species. The cornea, a clear covering at the front of the eye, enables light penetration. The eye's middle...

Glaucoma: Overview

1000
Glaucoma is an eye condition characterized by increased intraocular pressure that damages the retina and optic nerve, leading to irreversible blindness if left untreated. The human eye has various components, including the cornea, iris, pupil, lens, and optic nerve. Aqueous humor is secreted by the epithelium of the ciliary body in the posterior chamber and flows through the trabecular meshwork and canal of Schlemm, maintaining normal intraocular pressure. The trabecular meshwork and the canal...

Depth Perception and Spatial Vision01:15

Depth Perception and Spatial Vision

1.3K
Depth perception is the ability to perceive objects three-dimensionally. It relies on two types of cues: binocular and monocular. Binocular cues depend on the combination of images from both eyes and how the eyes work together. Since the eyes are in slightly different positions, each eye captures a slightly different image. This disparity between images, known as binocular disparity, helps the brain interpret depth. When the brain compares these images, it determines the distance to an object.

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

This review examined peripheral vision tools in sports, finding that while some tools train specific visual skills, none use eye-tracking. Best sports transfer comes from tools requiring action responses.

Area of Science:

  • Sports Science
  • Vision Science
  • Human Performance

Background:

  • Peripheral vision is crucial for athletic performance.
  • Numerous tools exist to assess and train peripheral vision in sports.
  • Empirical evidence on the effectiveness and transferability of these tools is needed.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review empirical evidence on the most-researched peripheral vision tools in sports.
  • To determine if and how these tools can investigate peripheral vision usage.
  • To assess the transferability of findings to sports situations.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic literature search of Scopus, ScienceDirect, and PubMed.
  • Inclusion of studies published in peer-reviewed journals in English, conducted in a sports context.
  • Focus on the five most-researched peripheral vision tools from an initial search of ten.

Main Results:

  • 93 studies were identified for the five most-used tools; none employed eye-tracking.
  • Tools using secondary tasks (Dynavision D2, Vienna Test System) offer the best passive control.
  • Tools demanding action responses (FitLight, Dynavision D2) show the best transfer to sports tasks.
  • Specific tools train peripheral monitoring (NeuroTracker), reaction time (Dynavision D2, Vienna Test System), or preview (FitLight).
  • One tool (Nike SPARQ Vapor Strobe) showed no link to peripheral vision processes.

Conclusions:

  • Current peripheral vision tools in sports lack eye-tracking validation.
  • Tools requiring action responses demonstrate higher potential for sports transfer.
  • Different tools target distinct aspects of peripheral vision, with varying effectiveness and applicability.
