Reminder that being outdoors and sunlight have nothing to do with myopia. It's about how much light is focusing on your fovea and in peripheral vision. Being outside is just one common way that your peripheral vision isn't constantly in focus because there's not a screen filling up most of your periperal vision.

- Arbalest 6y agoYour statement does not make clear whether you're making a positive assertion about the mechanism of myopia, or whether you're making an assertion about some other potential eye condition. If you are making a positive assertion about the mechanism about myopia, then you are directly contradicting the article, which states the mechanism is not clear. While it may be the case that the article is misrepresenting the science, I personally find this to be unlikely. In which case, given you are asserting an alternate hypothesis compared to the null hypothesis presented in the article, I do ask you for some more backup to your claims.
- stevebmark 6y agoI urge you take this seriously. It's frustrating that more people don't understand this topic, but I can't blame you for your ignorance, because you probably only learn from articles like these. Google for myopia control and start learning.
- Arbalest 6y agoI'm looking at it entirely from an academic point of view. I personally have hyperopia, so a bit of added myopia might actually help. As distinct from presbyopia, which is different again.
