IDN HEALTY - When out of the room in the blazing afternoon, the eye is one of the chapters that we often avoid from the sun's highlight, but .. do you know the function and benefits of sunlight for the health of our eyes? If you do not know, please read the following article thoroughly!
Especially in children, being outdoors will certainly reinforce the health effects of the reason is in addition to the physical effects but also improve their psychological health and reduce the risk of nearsightedness in the teens and teens later.
As mentioned in the preceding paragraph, that the risk of nearsightedness can be minimized thanks to outdoor sun lending, this is the result of a study of the akhi published by the Daily Mail recently.
Study author Dr Cathy Williams, from Bristol University, said the study is the first personal evidence of the benefits of natural light for the eyes. Researchers say there is an influential kinship between time spent out of vision and vision which is good, regardless of family history, how much time they spend or the child's physical activity.
The team examined by performing eye tests on 7,000 children from South-West England who were examined at age 7, 10, 11, 12 and 15. They also monitored underage physical activity for more than a week.
Those who regularly spend time outdoors at the age of eight or nine show little chance of suffering nearsightedness even when they are 15 years of age.
"We are still not sure why outdoor is good for children's eyes, but considering the other health benefits we know if we will encourage children to spend a lot of time outside, though of course the stinky people still have to follow the advice on the dangers of exposure to light UV (ultraviolet), "he said.
"Now there is a need to carry out further research investigating how much time is beyond being necessary to protect against myopia, what age the protective effect is, and how the protective effect actually works, so we can try and reduce the number of children who become short-sighted" he continued.
Between quarter and half of young people in the West and up to 80 percent of young people in some Southeast Asian chapters are affected by short-sightedness, or myopia.
More than a third of adolescents with such conditions should wear glasses to see distant objects with light or a number that has been doubled in the past 30 years.
