    Not just computers…

    As a septuagenarian, started very early as a voracious reader. Usually in bed before sleep. Often by flashlight.

    Needed correction for nearsightedness by age 10.

    Saw a study recently that attributed significant amounts of reading as a possible/likely cause… Tend to believe. This study seems to come to same/similar conclusion. Also tend to believe.

    Can never be certain, but… 🤷‍♂️ 🤷‍♂️ 🤔

      Same i was reading a lot as a kid and have been on screens a lot since but my vision isn’t horrible. Left eye is definitely near sighted. But overall it’s ok. I definitely try to spend less time on my phone wich seems to be the worst for me.
