Learning new things! Henry had a rapid increase in near-sightedness this year, which means he is at higher risk for certain eye problems and further deterioration of his vision. New myopia treatments are looking promising to slow down those changes.

According to the Pew Research Center, the majority of parents—71% percent with children 12 or younger—admitted to being at least somewhat concerned about their children spending too much time on screens. And that was before stay-at-home orders upended many families’ screen-time limits. It's important to get off of the screens and get outside as much as possible. Sunlight helps to promote healthy eye growth and lowers the chances of nearsightedness in children. (American Academy of Ophthalmology)

Is my child at risk for Myopia? The more advanced the myopia is, the greater the risk of future eye health issues. Watch this great video explaining myopia and its impact on your child. Take our quick assessment to find your child’s risk today: https://treehouseeyes.com/take-the-assessment/
“Higher levels of myopia increase the lifetime risk of serious eye diseases such as retinal degeneration and glaucoma. This increased risk is because as the eye elongates, it stretches the back tissue of the eye, the retina, and can cause it to tear.” Learn how Treehouse Eyes is fighting to slow the myopia epidemic: https://treehouseeyes.com/blog/myopia-and-children-how-to-slow-an-epidemic/

#ad Mother Hen and Robot Cat want you to know it’s #GameOverMyopia time! 🤓 I’m partnering with the Global Myopia Awareness Coalition to encourage parents to be proactive about their child’s eye health.
I thought it would be fun to to dress up as characters from one of Chan’s favorite video games, Fall Guys, because they ONLY have eyes! 👁 Then we went outside, away from our screens to talk about the importance of eye health. Kids can’t always articulate vision issues so I want to encourage parents to visit their eye doctor to ask about new myopia treatment options. GMAC says a trip to the eye doctor can make an immediate difference in your child’s vision health and may help slow the progression of myopia if caught early enough. Have you ever taken your child to the eye doctor? #gmac #eyehealth #myopia #motherhoodinhollywood
