With all the children going back to physical school there is an immense revelation of silent Myopia in children who have not needed to recognise objects at a distance due to home schooling. There is a surge of children being detected with short sighted ness (Myopia) after teachers are recognising that the kids can’t see what’s written on the board. Myopia has become the epidemic in this pandemic due to increased near viewing and reduced outdoor activities. A routine eye check is recommended for all kids who have not been checked in the last 6 months.
