visual acuity (measured at 20 feet; 6.1 meters), with an average of 31% improvement in binocular acuity (pre-training mean of 20/13 ± 0.69 SE vs post-training mean of 20/10 ± 0.59; Figure 1A). These changes were significantly (F = 31.13, p < 0.0001) greater than those of the players in the Untrained group (20/16 ± 1.4 vs 20/16 ± 1.2). The pre-training differences were not significant between Tr...
