Why the editorializing in the headline? The article itself makes no mention of the phenomenon being "perplexing." In fact it identifies a likely (and fairly obvious) cause -- increased computer usage -- right there in the subtitle:
> A study finds that 17% more Americans have myopia than 30 years ago. Close-up computer work could be a reason.
- tokenadult 17y agoI just did a Google search on the submitted title. When did the title change occur? When a link to this article was submitted to another social linking site? Or right here on HN? I'm perplexed at how an L.A. times article that has the same title in a heading at the beginning of the article and in the HTML title element for the article can get a title change to what was submitted here, but I know the New York Times sometimes has link titles to its own articles from its own front page that don't match the article title, and for all I know this article did too in the original newspaper.
