Eighty percent of perceptual input comes from the eyes during a sporting activity, according to the International Sports Vision Association. For both the casual and professional athlete, good vision is key in maximizing sports performance. Wearing the right protective eyewear is equally important. Let’s take a look at vision and sports performance and how active sunglasses and glasses factor into the equation.
