Myopia
More children are getting myopia at younger ages – partly due to a rise in sedentary indoor lifestyles and an increasing amount of time spent in near activities. The younger a child develops myopia, the further it evolves, the higher it becomes. Even with corrected lenses, their daily life may be impacted after a few months.
