The Humphrey 30-2 visual field was examined 9 times before and after an 8-km jog in one subject, whose contrast sensitivity had been found to improve after jogging. The mean deviation improved statistically significantly suggesting better sensitivity of the visual system after jogging. Our results suggest that in some individuals physical exercise influences the factors which lie behind the visual field long-term fluctuation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
