Myopia – Prevention

Transcript

The best way to prevent myopia from developing is knowing the risk factors. If the parent, one parent or both parents are myopic, it is important to see an eye doctor for a routine eye exam to diagnose this as soon as possible. Another thing that is highly recommended is to spend at least 80 minutes a day in the daylight with outdoor play. And that has been shown in studies to be extremely effective to prevent myopia progression and development.
