Protect Your Child's Vision: Tips to Prevent Myopia
Myopia, or nearsightedness, is a growing concern among children, but you can help reduce its progression with simple lifestyle changes. Encourage your child to spend at least two hours outdoors daily, benefiting from natural light essential for healthy eyes.
Limiting screen time and following the 20-20-20 rule—taking a 20-second break to look at something 20 feet away every 20 minutes—can also make a significant difference.
Creating a vision-friendly study environment with adequate lighting and promoting good reading habits are vital steps. Ensure your child eats a balanced diet rich in eye-healthy nutrients and schedule regular eye exams to monitor their vision.
By implementing these tips, you can support your child's eye health and help prevent the progression of myopia. Learn more about myopia prevention at drronaldcauchard.com.
