Son needed a sports physical and they did an eye exam. I can't remember the last time he had one since he never seemed to have an issue. The tech came back very excited to let me know he had 2013 vision. I was not even sure what that meant. She explained that he had unusually good vision.

I did a quick search and saw that very good vision was a common thread amongst higher level players.

Anyone know why their ball players vision is and want to share?

20/30, which would pass a school physical but I ask him to wear contacts for baseball.

My kid is also color deficient, which makes the ball stand out a LOT more when it's coming at him, but not so great for the same colored clouds, lol! He's the only kid I know that wears sunglasses on a cloudy day :- )

I scared to find out what my vision is, but I will probably need glasses soon. I can't imagine having 2013 vision. Wonder if all that using the smartphone impacts vision.

Anyhow, read that sometimes vision is used to project players.

My son had 20/8 vision but his swing was so slow he could not catch up to the pitch even though he could read the seams on it.
