Thank you for this video. As a pianist I notice my movements are alot more fluid and my virtuosity increases when I stop looking at each individual note I play and start getting a sense of the groups of notes as a whole, which happens naturally if I use my peripheral vision when I look at my keyboard and at my hands moving over it. This makes sense with what you say.
Yeah because so that your eyes dont strain to much. Thats why reading a book or watching on a screen with bad lighting is bad for your eyes. There you tend to tunnel vision and stop recognizing your sourroundings
Wow, Dr. Cobb has somehow managed to take everything I've learned in years of training martial arts, photography and put it into words. Great video thank you for sharing your knowledge! Im probably going to rewatch this video in 1-2 years to re-reflect! -Subscribed!
I thought I had amazing peripheral vision, but it didn't even occur to me to practice looking at the places above and below my direct line of sight, I only ever practiced using the peripheral vision to my left and right. Cool!
breathing and spinal health i found is super important also being active help contact sports and doing the opposit of what COVID restictions are telling us to do. important.
Thank you, I play competitive FIFA so this here, helps a lot, I just need to get into the discipline of eating healthy again because I have been gyming just haven't been eating right since December last year, but I am gradually getting back into the routine!
Excellent video and perfect explanation, it is the UA-cam find of the week. I would love to follow up more of your great observations on peripheral vision training for athletes, more specifically tennis players. Top marks and well done.
Im going to work this into my eyesight day, I already active focus and can clear blur in distance vision and close up. Active focus may change the world one day.
I have lost quite a bit of my lower peripheral vision due to pressure around the optic nerve from Intracranial Hypertension. I have had this under control for years now so there is not new damage but wonder if things like this would help to repair the damage that has been done? Or is it permanent? Thanks!
I HAVE A PERIPHERAL VISION AND THIS IS WHY I GOT THE BIGGEST SPOILERS EVER I just can't read slowly and focus on letter by letter... THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE AND I SEE EVERYTHING
Really cool video, thank you ZHealthPerformance. I am from the States, and I'm coaching youth soccer in Spain. I want to begin to incorporate some peripheral vision training with the kids. Do you guys have any recommended drills and or exercises that could be useful? Also, how many times would you recommend doing these drills a week in order for them not to get burnt out? Thanks in advance!
Mario Z One approach would be to use soccer drills and add a peripheral vision component. For example, have one or two athletes face the goal. Next, have another athlete dribble the ball from behind the other two athletes. As soon as the athlete with the ball enters the peripheral field, have the athlete sprint to the goal. This is just an example the point is to make it sports specific using other drills you already do that make sense for what you are working on any given day. It's a skill like any other part of soccer so include it every training session.f Let us know how it goes.
I occasionally get episodes where my peripheral vision disappears. It can be quite scary when im looking someone in the right eye and i can't see anything to the left of their nose. Its a weird feeling especially when people speak to me from a side and i just can't see them.
Generally, intense levels of foveal focus generate increased levels of muscle tension. We like to use a body scan during peripheral vision work to link the idea of relaxation with greater awareness of what's happening peripherally.
Ppl got asian jokes... Asians said have you seen what our rds look like...? I dont live there but i got your parallel parking. Blind spots are eh. I really hafta turn around for those
I’m blind in my left eye and my good has poor peripheral vision and depth perception issues. Any suggestions for a VR goggles ( virtual reality) set up for eye exercises?
I've watched a few videos looking to see if we are aware of a particular phenomenon I experienced the other night. Nothing has touched on it, and with you saying we're still just breaking out in this field recently, I thought, maybe not, and you seem like the right guy to talk to. It's pretty simple. I noticed I could see something with my periphiral, 'only'. I cannot see it when I look directly at it, this seem strange. The only video that got close, said that you might be surprised what you detect first out of movement, clarity or other factors coming into your visual field. But, that doesn't cover the detection going away when you turn to a more direct angle. Idk, have you ever come across this? *it's a flashing light, very faint, strobing blue light, the room is dark. Illook at it, and I can't see anything, as I turn my head away, I eventually, maybe15-20 degrees from square, I can start seeing it. And it stays for a while, I'm not sure, now, if it stays all the way to 90, but...anyway. tx.
Really interesting question with a relatively complex "likely" answer. As you know, everyone has a physiologic blind spot in their visual field which is called a scotoma. Over the last 30 years or so a few papers have been published that discuss the presence of a central scotoma (in the middle of our normal acute foveal visual area) under dark conditions. Assuming that your eyes are healthy, this is the most likely explanation for what you noticed. Peripheral and central visual systems rely on different receptors in the eyes so it would make sense that you could see the blinking light in the periphery, while potentially losing it when looking directly at it. Obviously, if you experience any other visual changes you should definitely get this checked out, but you may have just found your blind spot under dark conditions.
what does it say if you loss more of your Peripheral Vision after losing it to retial tears and detachments with the effect of lazer treatments. i've loss a lot of sight now due to this. how does the brain deal and adjust to this new fov?
can you provide links to the literature in relation to the definitions and insights you report on? also the link on the description is broken. thank you
Great question! The honest answer is that we don't know yet. There are some great companies experimenting with peripheral work on large screens which likely offers a much higher opportunity for improvement. With that said, we have seen some clients do quite well using computer programs even on smaller screens so we feel like it's worth a shot as a test in most cases if you don't have access to larger gear.
Same for me, which is why I got diagnosed with ADD. I came to this video hoping to find a way to decrease my peripheral vision when I want to... My old mouse broke, so I bought the same one again since it was cheap, but they upgraded a lot of things, including the led lighting. And now it has a breathing effect which makes the thing unusable for me...
I wonder, what is the normal range/area of vision, for example Tunnel Vision, the vision shrinks but boost the vision in that small area, like focuses better, however, i wonder, do some people have a Wider sharp tunnel than others? Am i clear enough? Example look at a monitor, when you look at the center, how big is the area you see sharp, since the edge will probably be blurry. unless i got some sort of eye deficiency LOL.
This is weird but honestly I have this fear people know if I’m looking at them without looking at them and therefore that causes me to not really be aware of my surroundings like at work mainly
This may be a treatment for cartographagnosia / Developmental Topographic Disorientation, because the parafoveal vision is underdeveloped in that condition..
I only hav3 one eye functioning but after this exercise i think my Peripheral vision is fine..whats not fine is i only have one eye functioning so i barely see my left side. .
I wonder if that at all links to why I feel better when being out, be that walking or even motorbike. My sense are definitely heightened. I definitely use my peripheral vision a lot, I also rely upon it. I notice motion much better than mates, of which we wonder if thats due to my RGB colourblind condition.
Peripheral vision differs by ethnicity. Naturally, Africans have the widest peripheral field, followed by Asians and then Europeans. The quality of vision also follow the same logic.
tahanks ther is a way to be ambidexterous and what benefit of that and i discovered systema breathig i have somme diffucltie to initaite my self maybe you can orient me thanks a lot
Just a warning to those who want to train yourselves for this. It can cause frequent brain overloads aswell, especially while driving. it's a double sided sword as can be safer but also quite dangerous. was born like this cause of neuro condition.
Alzheimer is nor related; causation is different with correlation ...A correlation between variables, however, does not automatically mean that the change in one variable is the cause of the change in the values of the other variable. Causation indicates that one event is the result of the occurrence of the other event; i.e. there is a causal relationship between the two events. SO, there will be a causation IF scientists in US, Europe and Asia also find that! Otherwise just a test in group of people can not establish that FROM IRAN
You seem to indicate that there is NEW research concerning visual systems wiring in the brain. Please provide references from NEW "last few months" peer reviewed research publications concerning the regions of the brain that are connected to the peripheral visual fields.

Makes sense to me.
Although totally unable to do it with text, which others seem to suggest. Maybe a dyslexia thing.
lmao i use this to look at the subtitles and the video in anime😂
😂
God loves you
I’ve been told that this helps improve vision.
yea i heard better peripheral vision is
overball better eyesight
Yeah because so that your eyes dont strain to much. Thats why reading a book or watching on a screen with bad lighting is bad for your eyes. There you tend to tunnel vision and stop recognizing your sourroundings
I read focusing on your peripheral vision helps people with dissociation issues(me) be more centered and present. It works!

I loss my Peripheral vision had two surgery and laser and I haven't get my vision back. So this video is great 🙏❤
God bless you!
How is your vision now plzzz tell me
Green laser
Me too iam going to have surgery
I thought I had amazing peripheral vision, but it didn't even occur to me to practice looking at the places above and below my direct line of sight, I only ever practiced using the peripheral vision to my left and right. Cool!
breathing and spinal health i found is super important
also being active help
contact sports and doing the opposit of what COVID restictions are telling us to do.
important.

or you could be more ballsy and go on a bike and stare at the wheels and try to avoid lamp posts etc i think this works better honestly
Or even more ballsy and do it while driving car
@@Viktor007 racing drivers do this
Or even ballsy, go flying and spot birds or missiles at periphery

I HAVE A PERIPHERAL VISION AND THIS IS WHY I GOT THE BIGGEST SPOILERS EVER
I just can't read slowly and focus on letter by letter... THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE AND I SEE EVERYTHING
Does it bother you? I see too much it hurts the middle of my head or (pineal gland if u will) 🥺
You have a beautiful soul great video brother!
Excellent video, lot to learn from, Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
great video, my friendd.
Apparently it's easier to watch subbed anime when learning this
holy shit I never thought of that.

Im really good at using this kind of vision
I cant move my arms back far enough to where I cant see them with my peripheral vision.
think of it as a form of Magnetism and dopamine effects it
I keep seeing my lashes in my left eye and I’m getting really bad anxiety thinking something is wrong
thanks for sharinh. why do u use body scan in this peripheral excercise?
Generally, intense levels of foveal focus generate increased levels of muscle tension. We like to use a body scan during peripheral vision work to link the idea of relaxation with greater awareness of what's happening peripherally.
Should this drill be performed with or without glasses? Are there benefits for glasses wearers?
+flying_broccoli If you wear glasses do the drill with them and without them. Yes there are benefits if you wear glasses.
thanks a lot
love this thank you
i use my periphery when driving
Ppl got asian jokes...
Asians said have you seen what our rds look like...?
I dont live there but i got your parallel parking. Blind spots are eh. I really hafta turn around for those
I basically do this every time I'm cycling, now I know what it's called
Nice work and doing this type of practice in real environments is the best!
I see lots of people keep on speaking about Episoketren System. But Im not sure if it's good. Have you ever tried this popular training program?
I’m blind in my left eye and my good has poor peripheral vision and depth perception issues.
Any suggestions for a VR goggles ( virtual reality) set up for eye exercises?
This is trance or something like self hypnosis right? Can we say out loud affirmations durring this? Giving sugestions to subconscious.

Any other advice or training people?
Are computer peripheral vision exercises worthwhile?
