Abstract

Screen time and myopia: Options for children’s vision in a digital world With mounting evidence linking screen time to myopic progression, interest is growing in developing behavioral and nutritional vision care strategies to promote long-term ocular health in the digital age. The surge in screen time among children has raised significant concerns about its impact on eye health, with over half of school-aged children experiencing symptoms of computer vision syndrome (CVS).[1]
