Background : Visual abilities and motor performance are the key factor in athletes to improve their performance. One emerging technology to enhance athletes' visuomotor and cognitive abilities is SVT. This paper aims to show how SVT can be used as an intervention technique in athletics to enhance athletes' performance. Any research that examined the use of strobe glasses as a training aid for physically fit athletes was taken into consideration for this evaluation. Objectives : The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of stroboscopic visual training on athletes. Methods: In January 2024, searches were conducted using a variety of databases, including PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar, Springer, ProQuest databases. Screening publications that included strobe glasses as a training aid was done by two independent reviewers. 13 of the 25 full-text articles that were evaluated for inclusion and exclusion satisfied the requirements. Results: The results of the SVT intervention were: enhanced visual and visuomotor function; improved reaction time; enhanced eye-hand coordination; enhanced perceptual skills; enhanced short-term memory; enhanced central visual field motion; enhanced anticipatory timing; no improvement in peripheral field motion; some athletes reported feeling mentally exhausted and unable to identify colours. Conclusions: More research is necessary to establish the ideal strobe dosage and administration since there are no established guidelines for SVT intervention settings, duration, and outcomes in athletes. With future recommendations to athletes and coaches to incorporate SVT as part of sports training to improve their on-field performance, this review outlines the advantages of SVT intervention in athletes as well as the current research gaps addressing the usage of SVT.
