How does being outdoors prevent the development of Myopia? (11 June 2024)

youtu.be/FHXs_7Lv_Gc?si=q7caV1

- afternoon time outdoors more important than morning
- light intensity
- spectral quality (red)
- dopamine, local effect on eye
- atropine & dopamine do not affect normal eye growth; only have effects once myopic changes are initiated

~

Why aren't there more epidemiological studies that consider the effect time spent outdoors on health?
