Myopia Assessment

Step 1 of 5

Are you (the parent) Near-Sighted?(Required)

Why does it matter?

While myopia does not have a clear pattern of inheritance, the risk of developing nearsightedness is higher for children of myopic parents.

Why does it matter?

More and more research indicates that 90 minutes of time spent outdoors makes children less likely to develop myopia and may help slow its progression, regardless of whether their parents are myopic, or the amount of time spent on near work.
