Spending time outdoors has been shown to help reduce the risk of developing myopia, especially in children. Here are some outdoor activities that are beneficial:

Playing Sports: Engaging in sports like soccer, basketball, or tennis not only keeps children active but also ensures they spend time outside in natural light

Cycling: Riding bikes is a fun way to explore the outdoors and get some exercise. It also helps in reducing screen time

Walking and Hiking: Simple activities like walking the dog, hiking in nature, or even just taking a stroll in the park can be very effective

Outdoor Play: Encouraging children to play outside, whether it's on playgrounds, in backyards, or at the beach, can significantly reduce the risk of myopia

Gardening: Participating in gardening activities can be both relaxing and beneficial for eye health as it involves spending time in natural light. Research suggests that spending at least two hours a day outdoors can have a protective effect against myopia. The exposure to natural light and the opportunity to focus on distant objects are key factors in this protective effect.
