What Is Eyemaxxing?
Eyemaxxing is about maximizing the performance of your eyes and visual system. We train our bodies. We train our brains. Why not train our eyes?
From appearance to performance
The term eyemaxxing originally emerged in connection with eye appearance, eye colour and make-up. Today the concept is evolving.
Eyemaxxing can also describe the idea of training and optimizing how efficiently your eyes and brain work together.
Eyemaxxing through vision training
Vision is much more than seeing clearly. Every day your eyes need to move accurately, change focus, track objects and coordinate with each other while your brain processes the visual information.
Vision training targets these functional visual skills.
- Eye coordination and binocular vision
- Focusing and focus flexibility
- Eye movement speed and accuracy
- Visual tracking
- Peripheral awareness
- Visual attention
- Eye-hand coordination
- Visual reaction and processing
Why are people interested in eyemaxxing?
Modern life places high demands on our visual system. We constantly switch between smartphones, computers and objects at different distances.
Students spend hours reading and working on screens. Gamers depend on rapid visual processing, and athletes must identify and react to visual information in fractions of a second.
Eyemaxxing with TrainYourEyes
TrainYourEyes uses structured vision training to challenge both the eyes and the brain. Training can include exercises for binocular vision, focusing, eye movements, visual tracking, reaction and attention.
The online program begins with a vision screening. Based on the results, you can follow a structured training program from home — typically around 20 minutes a day for two to three months.
Performance, not appearance
Eyemaxxing does not have to mean changing how your eyes look. A different approach is to focus on what your eyes can do.
How quickly can they move? How efficiently can they change focus? How accurately can they track? How well do the two eyes work together? And how efficiently can your brain use the information your eyes provide?
Train your eyes. Challenge your vision. Maximize your visual potential.
