So does that mean my parents were right when they said not to sit so close to the TV? My toddler loves to sit up close (of course we limit the amount of time the TV is on) and it's a fight I'm getting tired of fighting  |
It is a good idea to get a baseline health check done on the eyes. Similar to your physical exam you want to have something to compare things to if you start having problems. We would not fix anything if it does not need to be fixed.
Yes and No to the TV thing. If you are not genetically pre-disposed to be nearsighted it would likely not have an effect. Eye-strain and headaches are more of a concern.
