First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 08, 2026 · Updated 26 times

Summary

This study tests if changing classroom lights to mimic sunlight or using a phone app that encourages outdoor time can prevent nearsightedness (myopia) in children aged 7 to 10. About 396 kids will wear a light sensor watch and have their eyes checked every 6 months for a year. The goal is to see if these simple light-based changes can slow or stop myopia from getting worse.
