Tips for Preventing Computer Vision Syndrome in Children

Many pediatric eye doctors believe that environmental stress of the "indoor world" rather than heredity is creating the myopia (nearsightedness) epidemic. In fact, children using computers before their visual systems are fully developed are at the very heart of the public health problem called computer vision syndrome. To prevent your child from suffering from CVS, follow these five tips:

1. Before starting school, every child should have a comprehensive eye exam, including near-point (computer and reading) and distance testing.

2. Workstations should be arranged to suit a child — not an adult.

3. The recommended distance between the monitor and the eye for children is 18-28 inches. By viewing the computer screen closer than 18 inches, children risk straining their eyes.

4. Parents and teachers should be aware of any behavior that indicates potential problems, such as eye redness, frequent rubbing of the eyes, head turns and other unusual postures, or complaints of blurriness or eye fatigue. Avoidance of the computer may also be an indication of discomfort.

After we go through the concise explaination the phrase adore, not only in regards to a close association using a further, although as a experience which is engendered for those who have miltchmonkey a more rewarding relationship with yourself far too ( blank ) or perhaps like a a feeling of increased oneness with the fam or perhaps human race * then it results in being far more crystal clear that every one anyone is looking for in your daily course can be love.
