We are taking this story too literally. China isn't going after video games in fear of eye health. This is an attempt to save their youth from video game addiction, and the affront of video game influence on their culture.
In America we would bristle at the thought of our government asserting control in how our time is spent. It's clear China has done investigation into the health effects of video game addiction has on their people, and this is the first step in correcting it. They are simply being careful to control the perception as they impose limits.
