The Effect of Sport-Specific Visual and Vestibular Training in Open-Skill Athletes
Sponsor: Yeditepe University
Summary
This study aims to examine the effects of a 6-week sport-specific visual and vestibular training program on athletes' reaction time and dynamic balance, while comparing outcomes with a control group to determine the extent to which the training contributes to performance improvements.

Conditions
Interventions
Pinhole Glass Training
Participants work in 5-person groups using pinhole glasses to restrict peripheral vision, performing a continuous 5-minute ball-passing exercise using both upper and lower extremities.The exercise is repeated three times over a period of six weeks
T-Drill Agility Exercise
Participants complete a T-shaped course with BlazePod® lights, reacting to randomly illuminated cones and returning to the center; the exercise is repeated three times. The exercise is repeated three times over a period of six weeks
Letter Tracking Station
Participants perform Eye Letter Saccades tasks by reading sequences of letters and numbers with eye movements while performing rapid lower limb stepping; a ball is caught at the 20th second, repeated three times. The exercise is repeated three times over a period of six weeks.
Sport-Specific Vestibulo-Ocular Reflex Training
Participants fixate on a target while moving their head up and down and stepping rapidly; a ball is caught at the 20th second, repeated three times. The exercise is repeated three times over a period of six weeks
