Welcome to Episode 112 of the Goalie Science Podcast! This week, Dr. Jamie Phillips and Derek Bujan are joined once again by the highly requested Dr. Curtis Ackerman from Milton Sports Vision Training Center. This episode dives deep into the world of sports vision, concussion recovery, and the hidden impact of poor helmet quality on goalie health. Dr. Ackerman shares real-life case studies, including goalies who unknowingly played with visual misalignments or post-concussion symptoms, and how targeted vision therapy helped unlock their full potential. You'll hear about: • Why ringing ears after a shot could be a red flag for concussion • How poor helmet design might be hurting goalies more than helping • Why just using visual training apps might not cut it • The science behind peripheral vision, tunneling, and post-concussive visual challenges • The dangers of popular training aids like Swivel Vision goggles • How to find a qualified sports vision specialist near you Whether you're a goalie, a coach, a parent, or a performance specialist, this episode is packed with eye-opening insights on how vision—and the right kind of training—can drastically impact performance and health.
