Risk Factors For Myopic Progression
The rate and severity at which myopia is growing worldwide is alarming and estimates suggest about 50% of the world’s population will be myopic by 2050.
These numbers support the knowledge that environmental and behavioural factors are playing an increased role in myopic progression in addition to genetic risk.
The fact remains, our modern lifestyles are changing rapidly and children are spending less time outdoors and more time using screen-based devices at school and home. With the demands of a busy life, most parents do what they can to limit screen time and often struggle to know if they have done enough to reduce risk for their child’s visual development.
But now there is something we can actively do about your child’s worsening vision beyond getting stronger and stronger glasses every year - it’s called MYOPIA MANAGEMENT and it’s backed by extensive research worldwide over the past few decades.
