How does screen use impact vision? 👀 #HealthyVisionMonth

Learn more about screen-based risks to children’s vision and protecting young eyes in our #CommonQuestions resource in #LearnAndExplore. ➡️ bit.ly/44J2RFw
Pre-header: From #LearnAndExplore Header: Screen-based Risks to Vision Researchers have linked screen overuse to vision issues including: * Increased rates of myopia (near-sightedness) in children and teenagers. * Risk of developing “Computer vision syndrome” — a condition involving head and neck pain in addition to vision issues. * Increased rates of “Convergence insufficiency” — the inability to maintain visual focus at a particular depth — leading to increased blurriness and difficulty focusing on near media.
