Is there any study on how personality or mental health dicates myopia in someone? I've seen kids suddenly develop myopia when their parents suddenly start fighting (or get divorced), or in teenagers and young adults in schools and colleges when they can't fully deal with the prolonged stress of life. Our thought patterns do have an effect on our eyes, and I've always wondered if too much introspective thinking or depressive ruminative thinking of the kind (where we "look inwards" mentally too much, focusing on our faults or trying to figure out what's wrong with us or the world) over a period of time, contributes to some form of myopia.
