Re: And you wonder why so many children ruin their eyes and become highly myopic?

Dear AceMan,
That is nothing -- compared to a recent report of a 3 year-old with
20/50 vision.
The child was "judged" to be -10 diopters MYOPIC.
So rather that allowing the child time to develop -- they
PRESCRIBED a -10 diotper lens -- and insisted that
the child START WEARING IT ALL THE TIME.
| Quote: | From the study of the primate eye -- is it clear
that the eye's refractive STATE will "follow" an |
applied -3 diopter lens. (i.e., the refractive STATE
of the -3 diopter group will change by -2 diopters -- if
the -3 diopter is worn 16/7.
It is hard to see why a child (at 20/50) would be
put into a -10 diopter lens -- with no concern
with the secondary risk of that action.
I think the parent should have been informed of
this issue -- and given a choice or option.
But that never happened.
Just one man's opinion.
Best,
Otis

Glasses at a young age and reading without taking your minus glasses
off will led to stair-case myopia and your eyes will be really bad in
short time. And you wonder why myopia is an epidemic! |

I hate to be impolite, but you post absolute rubbish. What's your
problem?
