Effect of Yogic Exercises On Visual Acuity of Male and Female Athletes
Subject area: Physical Sciences and Environment · Area of research: Physical Education
Abstract
The present study was designed to determine the effect of selected yogic exercises on visual acuity. Total twenty (N= 20) 10 male and 10 female subjects were selected from Colleges affiliated with Punjabi University Patiala. The age group of the subjects from 18-25 years for the present study, further subjects were divided into two group such as Experimental (N=10) in which 5 male and 5 female and Control (N=10) in which 5 male and 5 female. The random sampling use for the selection of subject. To effect of yogic exercises on visual acuity; all eyesight samples were taken by the optometrist & were examined in a fully computerized ophthalmology clinic. The four weeks yogic training protocol was consist following exercises such as Palming, Blinking, Sideways viewing, Front & Sideways viewing, Rotational viewing, Up & down viewing, Near & distant viewing. To examine the study t?test were employed. The level of significance chooses in; to test the hypotheses was 0.05. The results of the study suggest that effect of yogic exercises for four week training better improves the visual acuity in experimental group, whereas on the other hand in the control group subjects who had not participate in these activities do not show any improvement in the visual acuity.
