Did you know outdoor time can protect your child’s vision?

A trial in China found that adding just 40 extra minutes of outdoor play each school day reduced new cases of myopia by over 20% (He et al., JAMA, 2015).

Natural sunlight is one of the most powerful protectors against myopia (blurry distance vision), yet shorter fall days and colder weather mean kids spend less time outside. At Treehouse Eyes, we combine proven treatments with lifestyle guidance to help slow or even stop myopia progression. Give these outdoor fall activities a try!

What is Myopia?
Myopia means kids see up close clearly but struggle to see things that are far away, like the whiteboard in class.

Myopia is a progressive disease that increases the risk for retinal detachment, glaucoma, macular degeneration, and other serious eye diseases later in life.

The good news: Early detection and comprehensive eye exams allow Treehouse Eyes doctors to slow or even stop its progression.
