Myopia scam?!

Myopia scam?

www.myopia.org

I was surfing on Google and I found this site. It states some interesting stuff on myopia... I was wondering what your opinion was on it.

I personally think this website is a load of crap…lol
I just think it’s crazy that they suggest that parents should do eye tests on their own children and order these special glasses that are conveniently sold on the same web site.
You can just tell it is a scam read this following statement “The International Myopia Prevention Assn. is a nonprofit organization that is dedicated to informing the public about myopia prevention. These products are offered for you here only because they have been suppressed by the eye doctors and optical industry, making them next to impossible for you to get anywhere else.”
But then posted at the bottom of the billing page it says “Note that your credit card statement will show billing by IMPA”
Hmmm I wonder where the money is going???

I think that this website is dangerous because it is encouraging people to stop going to the eye doctors and buy these “contraptions” for their children. It is very important that children have eye exams… Some eye conditions may have lasting effects on a child’s vision if not diagnosed and treated by a certain age.
Myopia is not caused by wearing glasses… I wore glasses as a child and I do not need them anymore…. And the amount of time I spend on the computer and reading I should be blind by now if it was true that excessive "near" work caused myopia.
When you wear glasses the lenses just bend the light so it falls onto your retina so you can see clearly. They do not change the anatomy of the eye and I have seen no solid scientific research to prove otherwise.
