Risk of myopia (nearsightedness) cut dramatically the more time kids spend outdoor

If you want good vision + eyesight - one of the BEST things you can do is get outside regularly. For instance - risk of myopia (nearsightedness) is cut dramatically the more outdoor time kids get. Up to a 70% risk reduction in this study.

50% of people are estimated to have this condition by 2050.

Bright sunlight helps the eyes produce more dopamine, which restricts the excessive growth of the eye - the cause of nearsightedness.

Probably also might matter that blue light can be directly toxic to the retinal cells yet other wavelengths in the sun are protective for them.
