Description

Hao Kang and Xiaofen Cao review stroboscopic visual training for basketball in a 2026 narrative review. Training under flickering eyewear is meant to sharpen how athletes take in a fast game, but basketball-specific studies are scarce. The pair gathered work from comparable open-skill sports published between 1997 and 2026.

Across sports, the training improved three markers tied to information processing: reaction time, decision accuracy, and motor control. They sort training settings into a three-phase frame matched to processing stages and to basketball-specific measures. Every suggested setting, though, rests on cross-sport trends, so the framework stands as a hypothesis until basketball trials test the numbers directly.
