I have mixed feelings to say the least. The University of Cincinnatti have instituted a program of Vision Training. Now the Major Leaque teams are interested and looking into the program. Baseball will never be the same, of course, it hasn't been the same for many years, what else is new. :)

The Bearcats baseball team implemented a comprehensive vision training program before last season and got surprisingly good results. The team batting average went up 34 points while hitting was down in the rest of the Big East because of the NCAA's switch to aluminum bats that react more like wooden ones.
''I think at first we were all kind of skeptical about it,'' said Glass, a sophomore who batted .366 this season. ''No one really thinks about how I can improve my eyes by doing exercises like that. The first few times it was really weird. None of us was used to it. Our eyes were sore.
''But it's caught on and we're still doing it.''
