Step 1
Practice different sports. These sports do not have to be the typical active sports such as football or basketball. Ping pong is great activity that can improve hand-eye coordination. Tennis is another great sport to try because it is basically ping pong played on a larger scale.

Step 2
Play catch with a friend or relative. The simple act of repetitively catching a ball, be it a football, baseball or tennis ball can help improve hand-eye coordination. Another added level that helps concentration is to write letters or numbers on the ball. Then as you are catching the ball try to call out the last letter or number that you see before the catch. This should be done with a ball that will not hurt the participants.

Step 3
Add more zinc to the diet. Studies have shown that 20 mg of zinc a day can improve hand-eye coordination. Food that contain zinc include oysters, pumpkin seeds, whole grains, sunflower seeds, animal proteins, beans, nuts and almonds. Food that blocks zinc absorption include legumes, whole grain breads and cereals. Before any change in a dietary regiment please consult a physician.

Step 4
Utilize video games. Now this issue is still a somewhat hotly debated topic. So this may be used as just an excuse to relax and play. Some video games tout this benefit but it is up to individual to decide the merit of it.
