Myopia is primarily caused by lack of exposure to sunlight and thus attenuated dopamine production from the retina which stops axial elongation of the eye due to extended near work.

DSDO and 0.01% atropine appears to be effective, but the behavior modification as outlined above is the primary defense.

Generations of people were told that myopia was genetic which is almost entirely untrue.

Wouldn’t have helped with me, as I was born very nearsighted. My first visual memory is of being 4 years old and getting my first glasses. 66 years later, I still remember looking across the street from the optometrist’s office and seeing leaves on a tree and bricks in the wall of a building. A whole new world, just like that.
