shortsightedness is highly correlated with years spent in education

A paper in last week’s British Medical Journal reports that shortsightedness is highly correlated with years spent in education. The authors claim to have eliminated the possibility that the myopic are more intelligent than the perfectly sighted by controlling for genetic factors, and that the relationship is causative. Education is bad for your eyesight.
I have been to two countries in which the wearing of spectacles was suspect, if not outright prohibited. They were North Korea and Equatorial Guinea. In North Korea I saw no one on the street, in the mass parades, or at the stadium seating 150,000 people wearing them and thought this strange, as Koreans are genetically predisposed to myopia. When I asked my personal spy who accompanied me everywhere where the people who wore glasses were, he replied, “That is a problem we have solved.”
would anyone with perfect vision like to marry me?
- sincerely, bat eyes.
pleASE DON'T TELL SOMEONE WEARING GLASSES THAT YOU PREFER THEM WITHOUT GLASSES...
jUST DON'T.
In many areas world wide and across my home area of the Sunshine Coast short sight growth is reaching epidemic proportions! Among youngsters and preteens that is especially true, and I believe it may be blamed on the huge increase in screen-based viewing.
Eye Test o.O
Got my eyes tested yesterday, I'm getting glasses (for reading and school)!
Apparently one of my eyes is short sighted, and the other is long sighted. WTF? I've never heard of such a thing
Just My luck :)
