Abstract :
The present study was conducted to find out the effect of ocular health status on hand eye coordination of male sportspersons. This study was conducted on 50 male sportspersons who took part in team and individual sports. The criterion for selection of subjects was participation in university or national level championship. Hand eye coordination of the subjects was assessed by mirror drawing test while ocular health status was determined by specific ocular tests namely visual acuity, errors of refraction, cover-uncover test and asthenopia. Results indicate that hand eye coordination in male sportspersons with normal ocular health status was significantly better as compared to subjects who need ophthalmic corrections due to ocular health problems . It was concluded that ocular health status emerges as important maker as far as hand eye coordination of male sportspersons is concerned.
