SPORTS VISION SUBSPECIALTY
The next time you go to a baseball game and hear some invective about the umpire and his vision, consider how Burton Worrell, OD, of San Jose, CA, has tried to make the world a better place for baseball, one umpire and baseball player at a time.
Dr. Worrell has examined the eyes of major league umpires and professional ball players. He’s identified and treated their vision problems and helped them improve their on-field performance. For 9 years he had an assignment to follow major league umpires around California, conducting eye health screenings and helping them enhance their visual skills. He’s tailored his approach to sports vision to baseball players. » More
