Children should play outside to avoid having to wear glasses.

\nA study has found that spending just 15 minutes outdoors per day can slash the risk of short-sightedness occurring in youngsters.

\nResearchers at Shanghai Eye Hospital looked at almost 3,000 children – with an average age of seven – with smartwatches. to track their time outside.

\nNone of the kids had myopia prior to the study and were given two eye tests a year apart with analysis revealing that continued outdoor activity of 15 minutes – the equivalent of at least a 2,000 lux sunlight intensity – was associated with fewer changes to the eye related to short-sightedness.

\nIn the journal Jama Network Open, the experts said: “Future outdoor interventions for myopia prevention should include recommendations of outdoor exposure.”

\nResearchers said the 2,000 lux level of sunlight intensity is “easily attainable” during the day \u2013 even under the shade of trees.

\nThe team added: “A practical recommendation would be to encourage longer time outdoors as much as possible.”
