Hitter’s vision

RJMHSBaseballWeb member since 2007

Did you know MLBers have 20/12 vision or vision corrected to 20/12. If their vision weakens to 20=20 they get contacts. 3.9% of MLBers have 20/8 eyesight.

The average major-league baseball player, in the experience of Red Sox ophthalmology consultant Daniel Laby, has vision that measures around 20-12 or has been corrected to 20-12.

My college-age son disappeared during a game and I asked him where he went — he was in the clubhouse flashing lights in the eyes of one of his teammates while he was trying to hit. It was a vision strengthening exercise. I'm guessing it was more organized than it sounds, but I was surprised by how much vision work they do.
