Answers:
no it cant get worse from being on the computer or watching tv it gets worse because of age and deterioration in the eye!. the only thing that watching a lot of tv and concentrating on the computer can do to your eyes is make them dry and tired and some drops from your opticians can help that!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Yes it can get worse, but not from watching tv or being on the computer!. They have done a lot of research on this, and it appears that watching tv / computer as a cause of worsening myopia is merely a myth, as many people who have good eyesight spend a lot of time on computers and watching tv as well!. Myopia is due primarily to genetics!. Period!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Well, my eyesight has always been bad but there was no change in my prescription for about 15 years!. But since I've gone back to being a student and spending long hours at the computer, for the 1st time in years, the optician told me that my eyes have deteriorated a bit!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Some studies have shown level of shortsightedness to increase with level of education!. That is, lots of reading, close work as a child can set you up to become shortsighted!. Saying this, it's not true for everyone!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

YES I AGREEWww@Answer-Health@Com
People! Television, light, sun, WHATEVER, does NOT cause short sightedness to get any worse, it only puts strain on your eyes, making them appear blurrier because of tiredness and headaches, so that is a BIG myth!. And also, shortsightedness can get worse as you age, and sometimes can settle down, and get better, as you get older, you'll likely to become nearsightedness, which is why you see old people hold out their menu's when they eat in the restaurants!. So don't worry to much about it, you'll rarely notice it, and it's just a tiny little prescription change!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
