Only half of parents recognise impact of screen time on child's eye health: Study

Jul 20, 2022

New Delhi, July 20 (ANI): A study by the CS Mott Children's Hospital National Poll on Children's Health at the University of Michigan Health suggests that just half of the parents recognise that screen time has a major impact on their child's eye health. “Many parents may not be aware of both the short and long-term health issues linked to excessive screen time, including its effect on children's eyes,” said Mott Poll co-director Sarah Clark. “Our findings suggest that some parents may have inaccurate perceptions of activities that affect their child's eye health and vision and how to minimise risks. “The nationally-representative report was based on responses from 2,002 parents of children ages 3-18 surveyed in April. Some experts have pointed to the combination of increased screen time and less time outdoors as factors that may put children at higher risk for developing myopia, or nearsightedness, which can lead to serious eye problems in the future. The rate of nearsightedness in children has increased dramatically in the past 30 years.
