"We’ve tried lots of training tools, and the I-ON system is the best for improving our hitting. Nothing really forces our players to keep their eyes focused on the ball the way the I-ON does."
"Good athletes are blessed with good hand-eye coordination. When you can enhance that, it just makes them better. Look at pictures of hitters at the point of contact. Their eyes are actually five or six feet in front of the ball. The key is getting the eyes closer to the contact point."
"Hitting the ball is hard enough without having your head going up and down. The I-ON Eye Trainer will definitely help hitters with tracking the ball, keeping their eyes focused and holding their heads still."
"I have used the product with several of my players and the results are exactly what I hoped they would be. I have been using them primarily on tee drills, and it seems to show the players when they are moving their heads instead of using their eyes to see the ball. I have also tried the glasses out myself, and I think they’re unbelievable."
"After using the I-ON training glasses myself and with my students it was apparent that this device does two things: It helps to train the hitter’s less dominant eye, and more importantly, it provides immediate feedback regarding a hitter's head position during the swing. If my students lose sight of the ball at any time during the swing, they know that their head is either tilted or shifted forward during the swing. This is a tremendous tool for teaching the head position fundamentals of the baseball swing."
"Training your players to build proper muscle memory is just as important as weight training, but it’s a lot more difficult to do when you don’t have the proper tools. That’s where the I-ON Eye Trainer came into play. It was crucial to our players’ success because it physically forced them to keep their eyes on the ball. …We saw a big difference in batting performance from all of our players, even the ones who have been playing their entire lives. The I-ON Eye Trainer definitely works, and we’re committed to using the product in training going forward."
"The biggest benefit of the I-ON to our players is focus and immediate feedback pertaining to head movement. If we can get players to understand limiting head movement when swinging, they are going to be more balanced, see the ball better and, in turn, hit the ball harder."
"While the amount of time we could spend with the I-ON went down the last 2-3 weeks of the season they gave us some much needed work with specific players. We ended the season with a 27-3 record and were ranked 1st the Division 3 state coaches’ poll. We hit .383 as a team (with 8 players hitting between .380 and .465) and averaged 9 runs per game. I have given info on the trainers to a number of coaches and parents so they can use them on a more regular basis and the pair I have will be used this summer by my daughter and a couple of my players. The I-ON contributed to a great season for us."
"We used the I-ON at a hitting station in our BP most days. It helped a lot and our team hit .311 this year, which was a huge improvement from last year at .281 and 2004 at .283. I had 3 hitters hit over .400 and two more in the .390’s. I will use it in softball this fall."
"The number one thing I am noticing in both older and younger athletes is far less head movement. The head is staying on the ball. I have had the luxury of video taping my athletes and when comparing before and after the head and eyes are on the ball through the swing. It is not pulling off. I have also noticed that the front shoulder is staying closed because of no head movement…I am a believer in your product."
"I don't know about you guys, but I've never had a student BEG me to do more tee work or complain to me that they didn't get to finish their one handed swing drills but put the glasses on them and all of a sudden it's FUN and they can't get enough of it! THAT is the secret to your tool guys, you found a way to make it FUN and functional which is why I bet you see such good results in the lower age brackets…."
"We are swinging the bats well right now. We are hitting .310 as a team with 21 home runs so far…the glasses have helped us focus on the baseball. We are picking up the breaking pitches pretty good which means we are seeing the spin. I hope they keep us rolling through the season."
"We have seen great benefits using the glasses. If guys are back eye dominant, it instructed them to get their head/eyes more open to the ball. In addition, a few of our players struggled seeing the ball because of excessive head movement (either forward/drift or head moving up/down). The glasses help them keep their head quiet which really helped with their hard contact. We use the glasses about twice a week during waffle ball soft toss from head on and it really reinforces solid mechanics and a concentration using their eyes. You have a great product. I will be using them is summer camp."
"I will endorse the I-ON wholeheartedly. We will use them with our campers as well as my players. Hopefully it can get us over the hump and get us that National Championship."
"The very first time I used the I-ON I had one of the best batting practices ever. It makes the ball look extremely big after using it. I will continue to use them this summer and fall as I get ready for another season at the University of Arizona."
"The two best tools I have in my facility are the wood bat and the I-ON Eye Trainer."
"I've been coaching youth baseball for four years and the most important element of batting with young kids (age 10) is hitting the ball, making contact. You can work on swing mechanics all day and all night, but if a kid can't see the ball properly, he won't hit it often enough to feel good about himself (or herself) and to develop a love of baseball. Striking out in baseball has become a metaphor for failure in any aspect of life. Striking out has probably ended millions of baseball careers prematurely before potential stars turn 12 years-old. Training with the I-ON Eye Trainer for just two weeks, I've watched my son's love for baseball grow, along with his confidence. He always wants to practice now, and he approaches the plate in games with confidence and aggressiveness. No bases-on-balls for him! He wants to hit the ball, he knows he can hit the ball, and he hits the ball! We saw immediate (first session) results. Mechanically, he still has a way to go, but with the success and increased motivation he's experienced since we began using the I-ON Eye Trainer, he'll be an attentive, receptive student."
"We have seen the benefits of the I-ON, after the first three practices. This is definitely a confidence builder. Being able to see the ball through the lenses helps tracking the ball to the bat. For a player to know he will see the path of the ball from the start of the pitch to where he is suppose to make contact is a great confidence builder. Having this confidence gives a player an added edge when standing in against a real pitcher. The player focuses only on the ball not on who is pitching or other outside influences which may be bothersome to a batter. Greatest benefits are focus and confidence."
"I purchased the I-ON for my 13 year old son. He has some eye tracking problems, especially with reading. The early baseball season this year he was struggling as a hitter. Since getting the I-ON his hitting has improved. He is now hitting the ball, although not all are safe hits. His hitting average has increased to .603 (not batting average) from an early season hitting average of 0.285. He is more confident that he can track the ball from the pitcher to the plate and make contact. He is also sharing the glasses with several teammates during practice which has also increased their confidence and ability to hit the ball. I am very impressed with this product."
"These glasses really work! They were ordered for our son’s high school team in Denver. Our team is young but has heart and gave them a try. We had the neighbor’s kid over to practice – he is just a freshman and had trouble with his batting…He had two hits…good ones…the very next game. The smile on his face was worth a thousand thanks. Wish you could have seen him!! THANK YOU SO MUCH! We plan to use them often to get “in the groove”. From our great group of kids and parents at George Washington High School."
