Optometry and Vision Science is a leading publisher of work on all aspects of vision. Sports vision has exploded in popularity recently, driven by intense interest in sports nationally and internationally including eSports. Sports vision research encompasses many areas of vision including visual perception, visuomotor coordination, and eye tracking, studies all of which may provide evidence-based support for sports vision training. This special feature issue will include invited reviews along with submissions through this open call for papers. This feature issue will inform investigators, clinicians, sports vision training device developers, and patients on the current and future state of the sports vision field.

Topics targeted for this issue include:

Visual characteristics of athletes
Visual demands and performance in eSports
Comparisons of novice and expert athletes
Visual cues for catching, hitting, and object avoidance
Predicting sports performance with vision tests
Visual attention in athletes
Evidence-based clinical practices

All manuscripts will be peer reviewed and should be submitted through: http://ovs.edmgr.com. Instructions for Authors are available at http://edmgr.ovid.com/ovs/accounts/ifauth.htm. Authors should indicate that their manuscript is being submitted for this Feature Issue in the Author's Comments box and in the cover letter with their submission.
