Sight Training: Enjoy Exercising And Relaxing Your Eyes was developed in co-operation with Dr Hisao Ishigaki of the Aichi Institute of Technology, an expert in the field of visual training who has developed sight training programmes used by professional athletes. He identified five different aspects of visual ability.
The Sight Training software focuses on stimulating these five everyday functions of your vision through a variety of fun exercises. You will be called on to use your Peripheral Vision, Hand-Eye Co-ordination, Momentary Vision, Dynamic Visual Acuity and Eye Movement as you work your way through 10 different Core Training exercises and a series of Sports Training challenges.

"You use many kinds of visual abilities in daily life. Identifying several objects in a wide range of vision at once, correctly recognising moving objects and so on make up your ability to see. In other words, you could say your visual ability is the accuracy and agility of your eyes. In this game we call your visual ability 'Focus Ability', and aim to improve it through training."
Dr Hisao Ishigaki.

Using both screens of your Nintendo DS to put your Focus Ability to the test, Sight Training is simple to use and controlled almost entirely by just tapping the Touch Screen with the stylus.
The software will present you with an Eye Age*, and stimulate you with a training programme to use the five different aspects of your vision and reduce that Eye Age score to the perfect Eye Age of 20.
Because relaxation is an important part of any exercise, Sight Training also has a built-in function that helps you to carry out simple relaxation techniques. A friendly voice will talk you through an Eye Relaxation programme at the end of your Daily Training exercises to help you unwind and give your eyes a well-earned rest!
*The Eye Age in Sight Training is a score allocated to you based on your performance in the various exercises included in the software.
