Outdoor play benefits myopia say optometrists ahead of Get Outside Day

Outdoor play benefits myopia say optometrists ahead of Get Outside Day

Sheffield family optometrists Alex and Sarah Gage are urging children to take part in the first national Get Outside Day this Sunday for the sake of their eyesight.

Ordnance Survey is urging one million people across the nation to get active outdoors on Sunday 30 September in a bid to improve health and wellbeing. Crosspool and Woodseats Optometrists Alex and Sarah Gage are backing the initiative because research suggests that children who spend time outdoors are reducing their risk of developing myopia.
