Dr. A.F.Downum OPTOMETRIST PLAY BALL: In all competitive sports such as tennis, baseball or golf, the eyes are constantly in motion, shifting their gaze from near to more dis tant positions as the ball is in play. The good athlete needs the ability to change focus and follow the moving ball with great speed. The ability to change focus is an innate function of the normal eye, but the speed at which you can do it is a learned fuction. Many professional athletes are able to increase their focusing speed through professional vision training, speeding their reoction time "to the ball". Many weekend athletes also want a quicker response as the pace of their favorite game accelerates. Through a series of carefully programmed eye exercises, your focusing speed can be increased, too, and your game Improved. Of course, your optometrist will first examine your eyes completely so that any other visual malfunctions con be corrected before train Ing Is begun. Q,, A.p. DOWNUM 103 W. Eden St. Edenton, N.C.
