📱 Screen Time & Kids' Vision: Just 1 More Hour Increases Myopia Risk by 21%! 👀

A new study shows that each extra hour of daily screen time boosts a child’s risk of developing nearsightedness (myopia) by 21% — and risk nearly doubles by 4 hours a day. 😳

Here's what you can do to help:

✅ Less than 1 hour/day of screen time
✅ 1–2 hours/day outdoors in natural light
✅ 20-20-20 rule (every 20 mins, look 20 feet away for 20 secs)
✅ Regular eye exams to catch and manage early changes

We’re seeing more kids with fast-changing vision — especially post-pandemic — and screen habits play a big part. 📲💻
