Myopia is a Growing Issue
Research has shown that too many close distance activities (like reading and digital device use) and lack of outdoor play can contribute to the rapid increase in childhood myopia.
While glasses and contact lenses can help compensate for a child’s blurry distance vision, these don’t stop myopia from developing further. As children grow, myopia often develops as they reach school age and, untreated, progresses into the late teens.
