MYOPIA PREVALENCE IS ALWAYS HIGHER THAN 92 PERCENT

In fact, very few people achieve such extremes of gullibility.

I have my own question here. To read this group, you would think that
90% of the people in the world are myopic. A lot of the questions have
to do with how something or other will affect myopia. If these things
*do* have an effect on myopia, wouldn't they have a similar effect on
hyperopia?

I asked my teacher what is meant by Power Reserves and even
ask more details about Fusion Reserves. She told me to inquire
at the Atomic Energy Commission.

So you are supporting Otis who is said to be the most
brilliant of eye exercise guru in the world.

Not sure what you mean by power reserves. Fusion reserves would not
be affected.

Either or neither. Studies of this have had conflicting results.

Or let's go to a more neutral setting. Supposed a kid

It is not possible to predict this. Either or both could get worse,
Either or both could stay the same,

What Power Reserves (like Fusion Reserves) are involved in this?

Would the corrected eye or undercorrected eye gets more
myopic? Or let's go to a more neutral setting. Supposed a kid
has a myopia of -0.5 in one eye and 0 in one eye. Would the
eye with -0.5 myopia gets worse or the perfect eye becomes
myopic? What usually happens?

Thanks.

The undercorrected eye would see a little bit blurry at distance.
That may or may not cause headache or discomfort. With a difference
as small as 0.50D, likely no effect.

When it bothers you, with headache or discomfort with near or far
tasks. Some people are bothered by 0.50D difference, otheres are not
bothered by a 2D or 3D difference.
