I'm Karen Muncey, President and CEO of Dynamic Edge Sports Vision Training Centers in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.
We have recently adopted the Vizual Edge Training sessions for use in the Center because they are the perfect compliment to our existing program. Our Dynamic Skills program trains skills such as eye-hand coordination, peripheral awareness, speed and span of recognition and concentration under stress, but we were missing the areas of eye muscle development to improve skills like depth perception and accommodation and convergence, which are so essential in sports.
Now we can offer our athletes a more complete training program and they're loving it.

almost anything to improve his game, anything from stretching to lifting weights to positive imagery to eye exercises. Yes, eye exercises.
