Is Vision Problem Genetic Or Due To TV Watching?
My son is 9 years old. Approx from last month he had regularly blinking his eyes especially while watching TV or playing on computor and also changing the angle to see the screen infront.
One day before , after checking in clinic, we got to know that he is having cylindrical power. Right eye (-) 2.5 and left eye (-) 1.75
Dear doctor, i want to know from you following :-
1) Is this genetic dis order or developed
this later due to excessive watching
TV and computor

health ?
3) Should he wear glasses all the time
In a day
4) Is there any remedy for reducing the
defect by means of excercise or yoga
or like so ?

Yes The main cause of myopia is genetics more so when both the parents have myopia. But genes only decide the predispising factor.
Not all children with genes develop myopia - the reason being healthy living conditions.
Use of T.V. computers & play stations. Wwith prolonged use of these from close distance does cause you eye to stain which adds to the already genetic state.
healthy eating habits like free from refined packeged foods and more of fresh food with lot of fruits and green vegetables will prevent the myopia.
eye exercises will definately help.
