RHR: The New Pandemic: Why Screens Are Ruining Our Kids’ Eyes, with Dr. Bryce Appelbaum
Tuesday, April 16, 2024
Dr. Bryce Appelbaum, OD, joins Chris on this episode of Revolution Health Radio to talk about the link between vision and your health. They discuss what vision is and how we learn it, why vision problems are actually brain problems and how they’re preventable and treatable, the impact of screen use on vision and brain development, what environmental factors can affect vision development, the correlation between ADHD and other behavioral disorders in children and vision, and the emerging field of vision therapy, which can help reverse some of these impacts.
- How trends in screen use are impacting vision and brain development in both children and adults
- How we learn vision and what factors impact vision development
- The difference between eyesight and vision
- The alarming increase of nearsightedness in children
- What vision therapy is and how you can find treatment
- Whether a diagnosis of ADHD could actually be a hidden vision problem
“You may not even recognize it, but your tech places a lot of extra strain and stress on the visual system—so much so that your productivity, focus, and efficiency may start to decrease. That's where ScreenFit comes into play, as the program can dramatically decrease those dreaded symptoms (blur, strain, dryness, etc.) so that you get more done and, most importantly, feel comfortable doing it.”
