Recently, we commemorated the World Sight Day insisting people to love their eyes and encourage children to do the same. The commemoration was meant to spearhead the increasing risk of getting the large part of the population with visual impairment approximating 50% of them to use spectacles worldwide by 2050. Children are at increased risk to get myopia and other refractive errors because of the digitization effect in which they are finding themselves using their eyes more for close views than distance views. Can the current family set up manage to minimize the use of digital devices like phones, tablets and TV for children? drop your comment here!
