The prevalence of myopia and use of electronic displays by children has grown rapidly in recent years. We found that children viewing electronic displays, however, experience hyperopic defocus levels similar to those previously reported for other stimuli.
Please find our research article in the current issue of OVS.

The rapid increase in myopia prevalence over the last 50 years has occurred simultaneously during a period of rapid technological advances, resulting in the dominant use of electronic devices for displaying everything from text, pictures, movies, games and more.
Myopia is accelerating rapidly in 21st Century and predictions suggest 50% of the world being myopic by 2050. Know more about how myopia is impacting our lives and ways to prevents its progression in Myopia Issue of Review of Optometry. The snippet of the research project led by PhD Student, Raman Sah focused on “Myopia and Electronic devices” is featured in Myopia Issue of Review of Optometry.
