Comparison of Visual Skills between Federated and Non-Federated Athletes
Background: To perform motor tasks, athletes must gather a considerable amount of visual information quickly. Evidence shows that visual skills vary between athletes and non-athletes, and impact athletic performance. However, there is no scientific evidence suggesting that there are any differences between the visual skills of federated and non-federated athletes. As such, the objective of this paper was to compare how visual skills influence the…
The Evolution and the Impact of Refractive Errors on Academic Performance
The relationship between vision and academic performance has been discussed for a long time, with special emphasis on visual factors associated with learning problems. The objective of this pilot study is to obtain an initial idea about the evolution and the impact of refractive errors on school-aged children. A visual examination was performed on 252 children between the ages of 6 and 11 years, which consisted of objective refraction, subjective…
Quality of Life and Anxiety in Age Macular Degeneration Patients
(1) Background: Chronic diseases affect patients' quality of life. Age Macular Degeneration (AMD) is one of the most prevalent chronic ocular diseases. The study aims to measure the anxiety and quality of life related to vision in patients with AMD, as well as the relationship with other visual and demographic parameters. (2) Methods: Prospective cross-sectional study in AMD patients. Visual acuity (VA), contrast sensitivity (CS), line difference…
Social Media Impact of Myopia Research
although myopia is a research topic with a high interest in society, most cited articles are not those with the most impact on social media. Myopia researchers should make more effort in promoting their goals, and social media is a useful tool to share them
Influence of Face Masks on the Use of Contact Lenses
Mask use increases dry eye symptoms in contact lens wearers, negatively impacting visual quality
Vision in Futsal Players
The futsal players did not perform better than the control group in most of the tests carried out, except in the "anticipation time". Therefore, visual training maybe necessary to improve visual skills and sports performance
Influence of Vision on Drivers
Vision appears to play a key role in driving and a good visual assessment is recommended for early detection of visual problems that may affect road safety. A study with a larger sample size would be necessary to confirm the results of this pilot study
The Role of Social Media in Sports Vision
The citations are not related to the impact of scientific articles on social networks. Sports vision is a specialty with a growing interest in social media
Description of Main Predictors for Taking Sick Leave Associated with Work-Related Eye Injuries in Spain
Recent studies in Spain have shown that males, younger workers, and people involved in manual jobs had the highest risk of suffering a work-related eye injury (WREI). This study aims to assess the predictors of sick leave associated with WREI and to compare them with risk factors of initial injury. A retrospective and descriptive study of WREI that causes sick leave of one or more days among workers from an insurance labor mutual company in Spain…
Differences in Visuospatial Expertise between Skeet Shooting Athletes and Non-Athletes
Although this study does not support the theory that athletes-in this case, skeet shooting athletes-perform significantly better in most components of the visuospatial tests, visual memory and hand-eye coordination are exceptions. To be more accurate in distinguishing between athletes and non-athletes, specific testing methods that can be used by a wide variety of disciplines should be developed. Training the weakest aspects of athletes can impro…
Development of a Method to Potentially Substitute Direct Evaluation of Mesopic Visual Acuity in Drivers
(1) Background: In mesopic lighting conditions, or under adverse environmental circumstances, visual information is reduced, which increases the risk of traffic accidents. This effect could be reduced with a precise evaluation of the visual function under mesopic conditions, but it is difficult to replicate in clinics. This study aims to develop an easy-to-adopt method to evaluate mesopic visual acuity (VA) in drivers. (2) Methods: Prospective an…
Impact of Covid-19 Home Confinement in Children’s Refractive Errors
Myopia is a public health problem, with estimations that 50% of the world population will be myopic by 2050. Some environmental factors, such as time spent outdoors, doing near work, and using digital devices, influence the development of myopia in children. Home confinement in Spain has increased these risk factors, so this study aims to investigate the impact of home confinement during the COVID-19 outbreak in the vision of school-aged children…
The Prevalence of Myopia in Children in Spain
The prevalence of myopia in Spain in children between 5 and 7 years old increased significantly between 2016 and 2020
The Relationship Between Screen and Outdoor Time With Rates of Myopia in Spanish Children
Background: Nowadays, digital devices have become usual in children's lives around the world. Five percent of the children between 5 and 7 years old have their own smartphone and forty-two percent of them have their own tablet. This fact has produced a change in their lifestyle that can imply some risks, threats and/or opportunities. The light emitted by digital devices’ screens could involve, among others, possible risks to children’s vision. Me…
