Sports Vision in Colorado Springs
How Vision Supports Athletic Performance
During a sports vision evaluation, we look at how your eyes work together during the types of tasks you encounter in your sport. We review how clearly you see at different distances, how efficiently your eyes move from one target to another, and how well you can sustain visual effort throughout practices and competitions.
Vision Therapy for Sports-Related Visual Skills
For some athletes, a comprehensive eye exam reveals visual skills that can be strengthened through structured vision therapy. This may include improving the way the eyes track moving objects, coordinate during rapid movements, or maintain focus during demanding tasks.
Therapy programs are individualized and goal-oriented, with activities selected to address the skills most relevant to the athlete’s age, sport, and level of play. Progress is monitored over time so families and athletes can see how visual function is changing alongside training and experience.
Sports Eyewear & Rec Specs at Bettner Vision
Protective eyewear is an important part of sports vision, particularly for children and teens involved in school sports and recreational leagues. Bettner Vision carries Rec Specs and additional sports eyewear designed to provide impact-resistant protection and stable vision during activity.
Our optical team helps athletes choose frames that fit securely, accommodate prescriptions when required, and meet the specific demands of their sport. Lenses are produced in our on-site lab, allowing prescriptions and sports eyewear to be managed within the same practice.
We Offer Vision Care for Athletes of All Ages
Families in Briargate, Cordera, and surrounding neighborhoods often seek guidance when a child loses track of the ball, struggles with coordination, or seems visually overwhelmed during fast-paced play. We evaluate how vision may be contributing and outline appropriate next steps, which may include updated eyewear, sports-specific contact lens options, or vision therapy when indicated.
Active adults who participate in recreational sports can also benefit from assessments that consider both visual comfort and safety. Our goal is to support consistent, reliable vision so athletes of all ages can train and compete with greater confidence.
