MYTH or FACT? ๐ค
๐ โReading in dim light or at night will ruin your eyes.โ
Itโs a little more complicated than that! ๐
Poor lighting can make your eyes work harder and may contribute to eye strain, headaches and tired eyes. There is also evidence that prolonged near-work and limited time outdoors can contribute to the development of myopia (short-sightedness), particularly in children and young people.
๐ก Our tip: Use good lighting when reading, take regular breaks, blink often and keep up with your routine eye tests.
Your eyes work hard every day โ look after them! โค๏ธ
