Comment on How to maintain good vision amidst the myopia epidemicparent

Comments

Just anecdata, perhaps, but same.

I did nerdy kid stuff like read lots of books and use computer screens (uncommon back then, I'm 52)... but I also played outdoors for hours nearly every single day.

Ended up with vision at -6.00 by the time I was a young teenager (don't remember the age it started to slide that way but would estimate around 7-8 or so). Hasn't gotten any worse (or better) since then.
