Didn’tCouldn’t see that one coming.It was a little blurry for me.
Outdoors teaching is an idea we should really be doing more. It would have been useful to have during the pandemic, and it is still a good idea.
Let’s hope there is a way to cure it.
I always thought it was only genetic, so noone could do anything against a wrong eyeball shape. But this seems very uplifting.
I wonder though why this article cites mainly eastern Asian sources. Is the rest of the world not interested in curing myopia?
Wasn’t myopia linked to lack of exposure to sunlight while growing up? The cure is literally for children to go outside more. and for those with it LASIK is the only solution.
As I understand it, it isn’t sunlight, but distance.
If a child spends all its time indoors focusing on nothing farther than the walls, myopia will result.
I believe it’s a combo of sunlight and distance according to experts.

The article goes into detail on this
I’m actually about to get ICL surgery to correct mine in July @ 35 years old. Pretty stoked to not have to use glasses anymore. Though from what I’ve been told, it will make those of us who get ICLs more susceptible to early cataracts (like 60 years old or so versus 75, as we all will eventually get cataracts if we live long enough), and I’ll need a second surgery at that point for better lenses. But if I’m going to eventually need that surgery anyway to remove a cataract, then what’s it matter?
It has been a noticeable phenomena in East Asia for about 2 decades longer than the West. They’ve been studying it longer/have more data.
