“I think coaches and athletes are starting to realize there is an important part of overall performance that is often overlooked and that is the visual system. A lot of time and energy is spent in the mechanics. For example, a baseball player will spend a lot of time with the hitting coach, a swing coach—working on the mechanics. But realistically, I always say that you could have the nicest swing but if you are not seeing the ball, that nice swing is not gonna do you much in terms of performance.” – Dr. Alex Andrich
