‘Short-sightedness’ or ‘nearsightedness’ are the common terms for myopia – a common eye condition that makes distance vision blurry. It usually starts in childhood and gets progressively worse until the child stops growing. Opticare offers ground-breaking Myopia control for Leicester and Newark.
There are two main factors which can mean your child is more at risk of developing myopia – genetic, lifestyle or a combination of both.
Unfortunately, there are a number of factors in the modern lifestyle that can contribute to the development of myopia, such as; prolonged near tasks such as reading and screen time at a short distance, low levels of outdoor activity and even poor lighting levels.
